Answers

Answered by shreyajasmine008

Answer:

Prashastis and Land Grants

Prashastis are a special kind of inscription, meaning “in praise of”. They were composed by learned Brahmans in praise of the rulers, which may not be literally true; but, they tell us how rulers of that time wanted to illustrate themselves.

If the kings liked the prashastis, they gave land as gift to the Brahmans, with records of it on copper plates.
