Answer to Question 1

Answer to Question 2

• A palimpsest is a manuscript parchment written on again and again in which everything written before is never fully erased. Everything written before is somehow still there, visible and readable . . . Similarly in Indian culture old traditions persist and coexist with the new and innovative . . .
