According to Natto Bidhi (ণত্ব বিধান) in Bengali grammar, why does 'ণ' (Murddhanya-na) follow 'ঋ', 'র', or 'ষ'?

It applies exclusively to foreign borrowed words like English or Persian terms. Dental 'ন' is used after 'ঋ', 'র', 'ষ' in all Sadhu bhasha prose writings. It is a rule governing compound verb endings in Deshi words. In Tatsama words, retroflex sound roots 'ঋ', 'র', 'ষ' phonetically transform dental 'ন' into retroflex 'ণ'.

Correct Answer:

In Tatsama words, retroflex sound roots 'ঋ', 'র', 'ষ' phonetically transform dental 'ন' into retroflex 'ণ'.
