SARASVATIKANTHABHARAŅ... 13. Articles on SKĀ by the Present Author
Ten articles on SKĀ by the present author have been published so far in Vedavāņi (July 1993- June 2000), mostly dealing with the correction of some sūtras from ch. VIII whose readings are found incorrect in both the editions. This has been possible with the help of the "Concordance of Nine Sanskrit Grammars" prepared by the author especially for this purpose. In this Concordance, Pānini sūtra and vārttika numbers have been given in the first column in serial order and the corresponding sūtra numbers of the remaining eight grammars – Bhoja, Kātantra, Candra, Jainendra (mahāvịtti), Jainendra (laghuvrtti or Sabdārņava-candrikā), śākațāyana, Haima and Malayagiri — in the following columns. 14.
