Source: DDSA: The Molesworth Marathi and English Dictionaryśiṃśapācōdya (शिंशपाचोद्य).—n S (Asking about the Shinshapatree. ) A term for a question or an inquiry which, although it is utterly unimportant, or void altogether of bearing (upon the quality of a reasoning, argument, statement, narration &c.), is yet urged and insisted upon, and the reasoning, statement &c. is rejected as invalid, till full and formal solution be found and given for it. The phrase arises from the historical fact that Rawan̤, in placing Sita down in his own city Lanka after seizing her from Ramachandra, placed her, simply because he must place her somewhere, under a Shinshapa-tree.
Marathi is an Indo-European language having over 70 million native speakers people in (predominantly) Maharashtra India. Marathi, like many other Indo-Aryan languages, evolved from early forms of Prakrit, which itself is a subset of Sanskrit, one of the most ancient languages of the world.
