Understanding Pa?ini from Pa?ini's Perspective : A Rebuttal to Cambridge PhD Thesis on Pa?ini

When Cambridge University awarded a PhD degree on the thesis submitted on Pa?ini to Atul Rishi Raj Popat titled "In Pa?ini We Trust- Discovering the Algorithm for Rule Conflict Resolution in the A??adhyayi," it was publicized by Atul Rishi Raj and his supervisor in social, print and mainstream media that 2500-year-old algorithm of Pa?ini has been cracked. This thesis submitted to the University of Cambridge on Pa?ini is a miserable fiasco. It cannot be deemed a work by PhD student but rather by a perplexed Sidhhantkaumudi's sophomore in the guise of Pa?inian Disciple. This false propaganda cajoled us into deflating the exuberance rife in the media about an ostensible claim of cracking the 2500-year-old algorithm of Pa?ini. So we attempted this rebuttal in detail with evidence to bust the falsehood of the new mechanism conjectured in Cambridge University PhD thesis and bring the truth to light. Hope this detailed explanation with evidence will help readers and scholars to understand the greatness of Pa?ini from Pa?ini's perspective and the importance of ancient Ar?a-vidhi (method) to learn Sanskrit and Vedic grammar invented by ancient Indian scholars of Pa?inian tradition.
