Solution

The correct option is D Manuscripts
The scripts would be called Manuscripts. The word Manuscript comes from two Latin words called "Manu" which means "Hand" and "Scriptus" which means "Written". Manuscripts are written by hand. Bhojapatras were made from the bark of a tree called "Bhauj". Tadpatras are palm-leaf manuscripts. Tadapatras and Bhojapatras were written in Pandu script.
