Who overthrew the Huna power from Malwa ?

  • A.Skanda Gutpa
  • B.Shakari Vikramaditya
  • C.Yashodharman
  • D.Pushyabhuti

Answer: C

The Huna power in Malwa was overthrown by Yashodharman.

Yashodharman, a ruler of Malwa with his seat at Mandasor, is known from his Mandasor pillar inscriptions, which record that he defeated Mihirakula and ended Huna domination of the region about 528 AD.

Skandagupta fought the Hunas earlier, in the 450s and 460s, on the frontier, not as the one who ended their rule in Malwa. Shakari Vikramaditya is a legendary figure and not a historical Huna-slayer, and Pushyabhuti was the founder of the family from which Harsha came, a later dynasty.
