Dear sir , i have read the article , and noted each that and raga , but i still have some doubts . does every Thaat has some ragas ? , there are lots of thaats here which don’t have any ragas in them , are they lost in time being ? , and which thaat theory is correct , is it Vishnu Narayan Bhatkhande ‘s modren system or the other one , please clarify my doubts.

  Dear Sharma, Thaats don’t have anything to do with how a Raag is created in the practical world. Artists create a Raag based on its mood and we just classify them with Thaats. The famous Ragas seem to fit a few famous scales that belong to a few famous Thaats. On the other hand, the Thaat theory, theorizes that 484 Raags can be created from one Thaat. The same theory creates 32 Thaats from seven notes. These are just theories to classify the information you have. Their role to create Raags is secondary.
