What effect did Persian invasion have on India?
After the first invasion of Persians, Indian kings felt the necessity of united strong empire to keep away these foreign invaders. The Persian easy invasion in India and Indian empires' defeat to defend their frontiers showed the political weakness of Indian empires. Permanent settlement of foreigners like Persians, Greeks and Turks, on Indian ground might be one of the main reasons for the easy invasions of foreigners. Persian invasion had a very strong impact on the Indian sculptors and architects. The engravings of animals and birds on Asoka's pillar definitely show the effect of Persian on Indian art. Since after the first Persian invasion, Indians and Persians began to trade very smoothly. Many scholars believe that Khraoshth script, written from right to left hand, was borrowed from Persian people. Indian and Persian scholars and philosophers exchanged their views. This interchange of Indo-Persian culture brought effective changes in the people outlook. Peoples from both sides became sympathetic for each other and became broad minded.
