Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
The manuscript is a handwritten record of the past. It is written on the surface of palm leaves, birch bark, parchment, papyrus, vellum, etc. It is difficult to store because it is written on soft surfaces. If not stored properly, it can be easily destroyed. Inscriptions, however, are not written, but evidence of the past is engraved. It is a record of kings and important events engraved on the surface of rocks, stones, cave walls, pillars, etc. Therefore, it is permanent and requires no special effort to preserve. Examples are the Ashokan inscriptions, the pillars of Prayagraj and the iron pillar of Delhi.
The correct statement would be manuscripts and inscriptions are different from each other.
