The eighth-century tripartite power struggle in South India was primarily among the Chalukyas, Pallavas, and Pandyas.
- These three dynasties fought for control over the Tamil region and surrounding territories during this period.
- The struggle shaped the political landscape of South India before the rise of the Cholas.
Why others are incorrect:
- Cholas, Rastrakutas, and Yadavas: These dynasties were prominent but not involved in this specific 8th-century tripartite struggle.
- Cholas, Pandyas, and Chalukyas: Cholas became dominant later, mostly in the 9th-10th centuries.
- Chalukyas, Pallavas, and Yadavas: Yadavas were mainly in the Deccan region and not part of this specific tripartite contest.
