Answer:

Limitations of handwritten manuscripts in India.

1) The hand written manuscripts were very fragile highly expensive, difficult  to handle and could not be carried around easily.

2) The handwritten manuscripts were written in different styles so understanding the script was not easy and hence could not be read and copied easily.

3) Copying of the manuscripts was very expensive, laborious, tedious and time consuming work.

The Rigveda (Sanskrit: ऋग्वेद ṛgveda, from ṛc "praise"[1] and veda "knowledge") is an ancient Indian collection of Vedic Sanskrit hymns. It is one of the four sacred canonical texts (śruti) of Hinduism known as the Vedas.[2][3]

The text is layered consisting of the Samhita, Brahmanas, Aranyakas and Upanishads.[note 1] The Rigveda Samhita is the core text, and is a collection of 10 books (maṇḍalas) with 1,028 hymns (sūktas) in about 10,600 verses (called ṛc, eponymous of the name Rigveda). In the eight books – Books 2 through 9 – that were composed the earliest, the hymns predominantly discuss cosmology and praise deities.[4][5] The younger books (Books 1 and 10) in part also deal with philosophical or speculative questions,[5] virtues such as dāna (charity) in society,[6] questions about the origin of the universe and the nature of god,[7][8] and other metaphysical issues in their hymns.[9]

The Rigveda is the oldest known Vedic Sanskrit text.[10] Its early layers are one of the oldest extant texts in any Indo-European language.[11][note 2] The Philological and linguistic evidence indicates that the bulk of the Rigveda Samhita was composed in the northwestern region (Punjab) of the Indian subcontinent, most likely between c. 1500 and 1200 BC,[13][14][15] although a wider approximation of c. 1700–1100 BC has also been given.[16][17][note 3]

Some of its verses continue to be recited during Hindu rites of passage celebrations (such as weddings) and prayers, making it probably the world's oldest religious text in continued use.[22][23]
