तत्राभिजनशरीरकर्मणां दोषवचनं निन्दा ॥ कZ_०२.१०.२५ ॥
tatrābhijanaśarīrakarmaṇāṃ doṣavacanaṃ nindā
ここで「非難/譴責」(nindā)とは、人の家系・身体・行為(ふるまい)に関する過失を述べることである。
Kautilya is describing the full rhetorical range used in official rebuke—covering social standing, personal attributes, and conduct—though in practice a prudent state would regulate such speech to avoid backlash.
