Correct answer: C. (A), (B), (D) and (E) Onlyकेवल (A), (B), (D) और (E)
Explanation
The Nyaya school accepts exactly four pramanas: pratyaksha (perception), anumana (inference), upamana (comparison) and shabda (verbal testimony). Arthapatti (presumption) is accepted by the Mimamsa and Advaita schools, not by the Naiyayikas. Hence (A), (B), (D) and (E) only.न्याय दर्शन ठीक चार प्रमाण स्वीकार करता है: प्रत्यक्ष, अनुमान, उपमान तथा शब्द। अर्थापत्ति को मीमांसा तथा अद्वैत स्वीकार करते हैं, नैयायिक नहीं। अतः केवल (A), (B), (D) और (E)।More Logical Reasoning questions
