Tran. Others hold that what follows from CR that eliminates the supposition that the probans exists somewhere without the probandum is only that (the connection between the probans and the probandum) is not dependent on a third factor; that provides the basis for induction.

This is the view of some Nyāya philosophers who hold that induction is not directly supported by CR. Rather, CR eliminates the supposition that the probans exists in a place where the probandum is absent and shows that the connection between the probans and the probandum is not dependent on a third factor (anaupādhika). This provides the basis of reliability of induction.
