Chanakya, also known as Kautilya or Vishnugupta, was an ancient Indian philosopher, economist, and political strategist. He is best known for authoring the Arthashastra, a treatise on statecraft, economic policy, and military strategy. Chanakya played a crucial role in the establishment of the Maurya Empire, serving as the chief advisor to Emperor Chandragupta Maurya.
His teachings emphasize diplomacy, governance, ethics, and intelligence in leadership. Many of his ideas remain relevant today, particularly in politics, business, and management.
