The Buddhists and the Jains have been mentioned, it is true, in connection with all matters referring to people of different sects. But the indifferent treatment accorded to the followers of Buddhism and Jainism is clear beyond doubt. For instance, in connection with the village scheme described in a chapter of five hundred and forty lines, only two lines are devoted to them. The slight is all the more prominent from the fact that rather unwelcome quarters are reserved for the Buddhists and the Jains, and that the temples of their deities are built outside villages and towns.¹
