Raja Sahasi II, was the last Rajput ruler of Sind his empire extended up to Kashmir and he believed in Buddhism as did his father Siharus. The rule of Raja Sahasi II ended in 632 A.D. He was succeeded by his Hindu Brahmin chamberlain, Chach of Alor, who had become a favorite of Sahasi's wife Chach ruled over Sind for about 68 years from 632-700 A.D. His son Dahir was the ruler when Mohammad Bin Qasim invaded Sind in 711 A.D and was defeated and killed by Qasim with the support of local indigenous populations such as the sub tribes Cheema of the Jatts who were ruthlessly oppressed by Dahir for not following the scared Brahmin rituals as many of the population followed Buddhism over which Dahir ruled.
