Explanation:

Jainism made the first serious attempt to alleviate the evils of the varna older and the ritualistic Vedic religion The early Jainas discarded the Sanskrit language mainly patronised by the Brahmanas. They adopted Prakrit language of the common people to preach their doctrines. Though religious literature was written in Ardhamagadhi, and the texts were finally compiled in the sixth century A.D in Gujarat at a place called Valabhi, a great centre of education. The adoption of Prakrit by the Jainas helped the growth of this language and its literature. Many regional languages developed out of Prakrit languages, particularly Sauraseni, out of which grew the Marathi language.
