Explanation:

Tirukkural or Kural, of Tiruvalluvar is the best of the minor didactic poems, and its teachings have been described as an eternal inspiration and guide to the Tamilians. Manava Dharmasastra is popularly known as Manusmriti. Milindapanho is in the form of a dialogue between the king Menander and Buddhist monk Nagasena. Milindapanho contains philosophical questions that Milinda asked Nagasena (the Buddhist author of the text) and informs us that impressed by the answers, the king accepted Buddhism as his religion. Menander is believed to have uled between c. 155 BC and 130 BC.
