Religion:Samasya-purti
From HandWiki
Samasya-purti (Devanagari : समस्या-पूर्ति / literally satisfaction of a problem) is a class of Indian literature, specially popular in Sanskrit, but also known in other languages.[1] In Samasya-purti, the problem is posed by providing part of a metrical composition. The challenge is to compose the rest of the composition.[2]
Some scholars have taken the last line of each verse of Kalidasa's Meghadutam as the samasya, and have composed the rest.[3]
