Best Answer

There was an Incident behind the story of Named Bindusara.

Chankya always felt that Chandra guptas life would be attempted by his enemies. And that came true also because Vishkanya’s were sent to kill Chandragupta Maurya.

So Chankya decided that to protect Chandragupta Maurya he would have to get immune from poison. So he would add a pinch of poison in his food everyday without Chandraguptas knowledge. One day Chandragupta had meals with his wife Dhuradhara. Dhuradhara ate the meals from his plate too and immediately fell very sick. She was just a few days away from giving birth to Bindusara.

In order to save Bindusara life, Chanakya rushed to her and cut off her head to stop the flow of blood through her body and then cut open her stomach and pulled out the baby Bindusara. But a drop of poison fell on baby head and it left a black mark on his forehead hence he was named Bindusara. He was also known as Simhasena.
