Durdhara, Samrat Bindusar's mother once ate as that of his father Chandragupta Maurya when she was pregnant. Both his parents had no clue that the food eaten by Chandragupta Maurya always had poison in it to make him immune from poison. This was done by Chanakya as a precautionary measure to save Chandragupt because back then Chandragupt had lot of enemies and attempts were made to kill him by poison. So, when Durdhara ate the same food the poison spread across her body immediately and it was almost impossible to save her.
However, before, she could breathe her last, Chanakya who had adequate knowledge of Ayurveda through his skills removed Bindusara from his mother's womb by cutting off her stomach. This was nothing but first cesarean operation ever conducted. Bindusara was born, however, his mother died.
This post was made on the suggestion of my buddy Aswini., If any credits it goes to her😳😆
