Description

This is an incomplete composite manuscript. The scribe uses a mixed Devanagari and Newari script. Contrary to the title given by Thapa, this manuscript is actually Vetalakatha, or Vetala-Pancavimsatika, which is signified by colophons such as --'atha trtiyavetala' i.e. now begins the third Vetala katha. The manuscript does not have all of the twenty five stories and the collected stories are also not arranged sequentially.
