A court poet can overflatter in prashastis to get gifts from the ruler

Answer:
Prashasti is a Sanskrit term, which means 'in praise of'. The term in itself says that it is something that praises the king or the ruler. In my opinion, the prashasti does not provide accurate information about the ruler. It is because the court poets, with the intention of impressing the ruler, would often write exaggerated accounts of the king's achievements. Hence, these prashastis cannot be relied upon blindly.
