'''Karka II''' (ruled 972–973 CE) succeeded his uncle Kottigga Amoghavarsha to the [[Rashtrakuta]] throne. By this time the once great Rashtrakuta empire was declining. His able feudatory, the [[Western Ganga Dynasty|Western Ganga]] King [[Marasimha II Satyavakya]] defeated the Pallavas. But the weaknesses created by the earlier plunder of Manyakheta by Paramara King [[Siyaka II]] exposed the Rashtrakutas to further depredation who did not survive for long. During this time of confusion, [[Chalukya]] [[Tailapa II]] declared independence and killed Karka II.<br />
