age, and earlier than AD 1100, the approximate date of its last revision. It

Vidyasagar Bhattacharya from Calcutta in the year 1876. It was reprinted

Pushpendra Sharma from New Delhi in year 1984. The Matsya Pur膩峁嘺: A
study is edited by V.R.R. Dikshitar from Madras in 1935. Another edition of

Agrawala. Its Sanskrit edition by Pushpendra Sharma and Hindi
translation of Sri Ram Sarma have also been used.
