    what is undesirable, incongruous or wrong connexion, as

    of an inference with wrong premises, the former tending to

    prove the absurdity of the argument advanced; or (in gram-

    matical literature) connecting one rule with an other rule

    which has no relation to it. E. aniṣṭa and prasaṅga.
