Tong is a kind of tool which is used to hold something. [...] The Viṣṇudharmottarapurāṇa speaks of three kinds this form viz., agraja, mukhaja and pārśvakṛta and it gives detailed discussion of the usages of each one clearly. The agraja-sandaṃśa-hasta is used for holding and extraction of thorns or splinters.
