These claims have been since rejected in their entirety.[1] Krishna Tirtha failed to produce the claimed sources, and scholars unanimously note it to be a mere compendium of tricks for increasing the speed of elementary mathematical calculations with no overlap with historical mathematical developments during the Vedic period. However, there has been a proliferation of publications in this area and multiple attempts to integrate the subject into mainstream education by right-wing Hindu nationalist governments.
