At the outset, I express my deep sense gratitude to my Research-guide Dr. G.U.Thite, Reader, Department of Sanskrit and Prakrit Languages, University of Poona, who took keen interest in my work. Needless it is to repeat here that but for his inspiring guidance and sustained encouragement, it would not have been possible for me to carry it out. I once again record my indebtedness to him.
