Here are ten unknown facts that happened after the great war of Kurukshetra which we are unaware of. So here are those.

2. After the Kauravas lost the great battle and perished on the battlefield, a grief stricken Gandhari was devastated. As a mother she lost all her sons and even her designation as the queen. She cursed Lord Krishna that his clan of the Yadavas will also experience such extinction and pain.

3. After the great war of Kurukshetra, there were only twelve people who survived. Among them was Lord Krishna, the Five Pandavas, Yuyutsu, Ashwatthama, Kripacharaya, Kritavarma, Satyaki and Vrishaketu.
