The L. D. Institute of Indology has great pleasure in publishing the Proceedings of the Seminar on Prakrit Studies, held at Ahmedabad from March 22 to 25 th, in 1973 organised by the Department of Prakrit, Gujarat University and financially assisted by the University Grants Commission.

We are extremely sorry for the delay, especially because some of the participants are no more to see the volume.
My thanks are due to Dr. R. M. Shah for correcting proofs.
I hope the rich material presented in this volume will in Prakrit Studies.
