  • 17:5817:58, 19 August 2019 diff hist +3 Gamaka (music) Sanskrit base for south but inconsistent Hindi base for 'Hindustani' with lack of differentiation of Persian loanwoards from native Samskrta words with ph instead of f (even fh was used in place of ph what consonant does that even stand for?) The article should be renamed 'Gamaka' for standardisation as Samsrkta is the base language for Hindustani and Carnatic Cultural traditions. The use of -am for Carnatic is also inconsistent with -am used for some ragas but not in Arohanam & Avarohanam

The link is to a news article from BBC about a suicide of a woman purely by choice and without the knowledge of her family, in the present age -- 2006. That has nothing to do with prevalence in the middle ages
