धृष्टद्युम्नस्य द्रोणाभिमुख्यं तथा सात्यकि-कर्ण-समागमः
Dhṛṣṭadyumna’s advance toward Droṇa and the Sātyaki–Karṇa confrontation
ततः स सर्वसेनायां जन: कृष्णधनंजयौ । गर्हयामास तं॑ चापि शशंस पुरुषर्षभम्,तदनन्तर सारी कौरव-सेनाके लोग श्रीकृष्ण और अर्जुनकी निन्दा तथा नरश्रेष्ठ भूरिश्रवाकी प्रशंसा करने लगे
tataḥ sa sarvasenāyāṃ janaḥ kṛṣṇadhanañjayau | garhayāmāsa taṃ cāpi śaśaṃsa puruṣarṣabham ||
তেতিয়া সমগ্ৰ সেনাৰ মাজত লোকসকলে শ্ৰীকৃষ্ণ আৰু ধনঞ্জয় (অৰ্জুন)ক নিন্দা কৰিবলৈ ধৰিলে, আৰু আনফালে সেই নৰশ্ৰেষ্ঠক প্ৰশংসা কৰিবলৈ ধৰিলে।

Educational Q&A
The verse highlights how, in war, moral evaluation is contested and volatile: crowds may condemn actions they perceive as improper while praising exemplary courage and warriorly conduct. It implicitly points to the importance of dharma (right conduct) even amid victory-seeking violence.
Sañjaya reports that the assembled soldiers began to blame Kṛṣṇa and Arjuna, while praising a foremost hero (contextually understood as the celebrated warrior on the opposing side). The battlefield audience reacts to recent events by assigning blame and honor.
