indicates his favourable religion "Jinism" which he belongs to. 2. Panini favours the Vyakarana leaning to "Edasesa" whereas
Pujyapada makes it Anekasesa (1.1.99). 3. IV. carries more abridgedness in Sanjnas in comparision to
Panini. 4. JV. inserts the Paniniya Ganapatha to a great extent. 5. IV. includas now forms accepted by Katyayana and Putanjali. 6. Abridgeness in sutras is found more in JV. 7. More or less JV. followed Panini, but added some more sutras. 8. Sometimes JV. splits the Panini Sutra into two or more.
