Why is this puzzle called "Acrostic"? In the USA, the word "acrostic" has a specific meaning which this puzzle does not seem to have. Does "acrostic" mean something else in India? Or does it mean the same thing and this is a separate aspect to the puzzle? |

Can letters from different words be in adjacent cells?
Most published crosswords use blocked grids, in which words must be separated by black cells; however, some published crosswords use barred grids, in which letters from different words can be in adjacent cells (and are labeled with a thick bar between the cells). |

Your first assumption is correct, all rows and all columns contain exactly one word. This will be added to the instructions. |

They cannot. There must be at least one blank cell separating different words. This will be added to the instructions. |
