Research Abstract

As the result of full-scale investigation into the intricate textual construction of the Mahabharata I succeeded in throwing ample light on the process of grandual formation of the epic text as well as to present an approximate chronology about the same process. Further, I got some valuable clues for elucidating the relationship between the Mahabharata and the Ramayana.
