No. 28.-KENDU!. PLATES OF KIRTIVARMAN II.
SAKA SAMVAT 672. By K. B. PATHAK, PROFESSOR OF SANSKRIT, DEOGAN COLLEGE, POONA. This inscription was first brought to my notice in May 1902 by Bhringarkar bava, a wellknown reciter of kirtans at Poona. He was then engaged in a literary controversy about the identity of Jiiandsvara, the well-known saint of Alandi, with Jiianesvara, the author of the Jūå nesvari, a famous Marathi commentary on the Bhagavadgita, and asked me whether the inscription threw any light on the point he was discussing. When I told him that the grant was. issued in Saka62, and had nothing to do with the author of the Jiianesvari, who was contem.. porary with Ramdeva, the last of the Yadava kings of Devagiri, Bbpingårkar bAva was kind onough to lend mo the plates for the purpose of editing the inscription.
