Book Description
Foreword
The Ramayana of Valmiki is the most important Adikavya, one of the two great National pics of great national importanance & significance. The Critical Edition of the two Epics was a desideratum and was considered to be sine qua non for all historical and textual studies, pertaining to them Therefore, the project of the Critical Edition of the Mahabharata was undertaken and successfully completed by the Bhandarkar Oriental Research Institute Pune (1919 to 1966). Similarly the project of the Critical Edition of the Valmiki Ramayana was undertaken & successfully completed by the Oriental Institute, Baroda (1951 to 1975) and was published in seven volumes namely Bala Ayodhya. Aranya, Kiskindha, Sundara, Yuddha and Utara, edited by profound scholars such as Prof. G.H. Bhatt (Bala), Dr. P.L.. Vaidya (Ayodhyd & Yuddha), Shri P.C.Diwanji, (Aranya). Prof. D.R.Mankad (Kiskinidha), Prof G.C Jhala (Sundara) & Dr. U.P.Shah (Uttara).

The first three volumes of the Critical Edition of the Valmiki Ramayana the Balakanda. Ayodhylkända and Ananyakanda were recently reprinted. Most of the volumes of Valmiki Ramayana are fast going out of stock. As there is great demand from the scholarly world for their copies, we have an ambitious project of reprinting most of them. The modern method of reprinting by scanning has made the work of reprinting such books more easy and quick. We are glad to present to the world of scholars this reprinted fourth volume viz. Kiskindhdkända of Valmiki Ramayana. I hope this will also be welcomed & appreciated by the scholarly world, interested in Ramayana & its related studies, like its previous ones.

We are thankful to the University Authorities for releasing the necessary grant for the reprinting & publication of this volume. We are also grateful to Shri S. M Pattani, the Deputy Manager, the M. S. University of Baroda Press & his co-operative staff for reprinting it nicely in a very short period. We are also thankful to Research Staff members of the Oriental Institute for their assistance in various ways in re-printing this volume. We are also thankful to Shri Ashish Muley of Omni Present for designing the jacket.

Preface
It gives me great pleasure to place before scholars the Fourth Volume of the Critical Edition of the Valmiki-Ramayana, comprising the Kişkindhäkända edited by Prof. D. R. Mankad.

I am also glad that the Sundarakanda edited by Prof. G. C. Jhala is sent to the Press. The Yoddhakioda is completely constituted by the Editor, Dr. P. L. Vaidya, the General Editor of the Mahabbirata, Poona. The General Editor will constitute the Uttarakanda when the four microfilms (Sta and Vis) are collated.

My sincere thanks are due to the Vice-Chancellor, Dr. C. S. Patel for the keen interest he is show ing in the Ramayana. To Dr. (Mrs.) Hansaben J. Mehta, the first Vice-Chancellor who opened the Ramlyana Department, I am no doubt very grateful for her continuous interest in our work in spite of her being in a foreign country. To the University Grants Commission and to the Gujarat Government I am thankful for the financial help to the Ramayana Department.

I am also thankful to the Staff of the Ramayana Department for their sincere co-operation, and to the Director, Oriental Institute, for the interest he has taken. I thank very heartily the Manager of the University Press for help in various ways.
