Detailed Solution

The above statement is False.
Prashasti was a type of eulogy for rulers that were usually written in Sanskrit. The term "prashasti" is derived from Sanskrit and means "in honour of kings." During the Gupta Empire, the court poet of Samudragupta, Harishena, wrote one of the famous prashastis. The Allahabad inscription of Harishena was written around 1700 years ago in Sanskrit and is a very extensive inscription. Because the majority of ordinary people only spoke Prakrit, they were unable to read the prashastis issued by the monarchs.
The correct statement would be that ordinary people could not read the prashastis.
