As I have applied my own mind and labour in the preparation of this grammar, I need not thank so many persons. But I have utilized the Sanskrit chāyā of the Apbh dohās by Pt. Shaligram Upadhyay who amply deserves my thanks. To some extent I have taken help from Pischel's Prakrit grammar, who also deserves my thanks.
Lastly, I am thankful to Shri Badri Nath Tiwari of the Vidyanidhi Prakashan, Delhi for taking up the publication of this book.
