In the east the Senas of Bengal were ousted by the Palas towards the close of the eleventh century. The Senas had come from Karnatika in the Deccan, and one of its warlike prince Vijaya Sen vanquished the king of Gaud, apparently of Pala lineage, and the neighbouring princes of North Bihar, Assam and Orissa. The last ruler of this dynasty, whose power was destroyed by Bakhtiyar Khaljī at the end of the twelfth century, claimed to have pushed his conquests as far as the southern ocean, reduced Kamrup to subjection, and vanquished the king of Banaras.
