Observation — The retention of dhaivata and nishada of Saranga merely means that both nishadas have to be used in the megha scale The 'ga' and 'ma' of Kamat would mean tivratara 'ga' and shuddha 'ma' practically In the Saranga Thata there were two madhyamas (tivra and komal), but no gandhara The ati-tivratama 'ga' was only another name for Shuddha 'ma' The difference, therefore, between the Megha and Saranga scales, will be clearly seen Our modern shuddha 'dha' of the Kafi Thata does not appear in the Megha scale
