    the punishment for same crime is graded as per caste in arthashastra

      That's right. Even in Manu Smriti.
      Upper castes get more punishment lower castes get less punishment for the same crimes, but they have to face restrictions

      That's not true . Death penalty was not given to only the Brahmin caste , that also a practising Pandit. Kautilya goes into detail on how the restriction on death penalty can be overcome. He recommended cutting of the Shikha and branding on the forehead the crime . He said that living such a life for a Brahmin would be worse than death . ​@@PseudoProphetdon't read half baked information from online sources , read the books .

      I know that slave mentality like you will only believe a white person and his translation, not the one from Indian sources. 🤡🤡

      Community/class based punishment were a norm and not an exception in the ancient times. Equal punishment before law is a relatively new concept worldwide.

    To prove that they are ancient, show one proof of written sanskrit in india from ancient times.. all that we see are from late middle ages but we must accept that they are ancient 😂

      There are other ways to prove the dating of a work other than literal physical evidence. Linguistic and literary hints help.

      @@nvspraneeth901 what makes these assumptions "bogus". Look at hittite mittani inscriptions, also there was general aversion to writing among the Hindus for a long time, even though it was done it was done begrudgingly so plus indian clime being unforgiving to perishable manuscripts doesn't help.
