Alexander's next plot, the murderous Puru, destroyed the Greek empire on Indian soil.
Alexander returned the kingdom of King Puru in the Battle of Jhelum and befriended him He then left Puru as the vassal of Punjab Puru's kingdom then grew in size Many medium and small towns, including about 5,000 cities, were incorporated into the empire of Puru But after Alexander's death in 323 BC, the Greek empire on Indian soil began to disintegrate.
This was due to the incompetence of the later Greek generals on the one hand, and their infighting on the other After Alexander's death, the Greek empire in India was initially owned by his loyal bodyguard, Namperdicus, but he was killed by an unknown assassin only two years later in 321 BC.

Then the Greek Empire was represented in India by another Greek general, Antipater Antipater recognized Puru's suzerainty over the Punjab region He too was killed by a Gupta assassin in 319 BC Then, in 315 BC, Puru himself was killed by a Gupta assassin in a conspiracy with the Greek commander of the Punjab region, Eudimus.

There was still infighting Alexander was in Punjab when the rebellion broke out in the lower Kabul valley and the Greek governor Nicanor was killed Philip was appointed governor there after the rebellion was put down Philip was then replaced by Philip, who ruled southern Punjab in 325 BC He was replaced by Eudimus.
Puru was not on good terms with Eudimus and was killed in a secret conspiracy The infighting continued, and as a result, sometime before 321 BC, the ruler of Sindh, Python, was transferred to the lower Kabul valley Sindh is known to have declared independence at this time.

The Greek rulers of India, as well as those of Macedonia in Greece, were in a state of intense infighting As a result, Eudemus and Python left India in 317 BC with their armies for West Asia They were both killed in battle No replacement was sent to India from Macedonia.
Thereafter, Chandragupta Maurya's skill, the intellect of the scholar Chanakya, and the incompetence and infighting of the Greek generals weakened the Greek Empire of India Soon the Greek Empire, which had been under the Greek general Seleucus Nicator, was reduced to a mere Greek fiefdom in western India, and Maurya India was built on the ruins of the Mauryan emperor Chandragupta Maurya.
