Got in from the author via private communication. I do not believe it appears in any book in this particular form, however, the information may be gathered from Dr. Vartak's various articles. His books (in Marathi) "Vaastav Ramayan" and "Swayambhu" (on the Mahabharat) make a very interesting reading.
