उअपपत्तिकारणाभ्यनिञ्जानादप्रतिषेधः

uapapattikāraṇābhyaniñjānādapratiṣedhaḥ

The line

A compound: uapa (उअप), patti (पत्ति), kāra (कार), ṇābhya (णाभ्य), niñjā (निञ्जा), nāda (नाद), and a denial.

Where it sits

In Nyāya (न्याय) Sūtra (सूत्र), adhyāya (अध्याय) 5. The false rejoinders, called jāti (जाति), and the points on which a debate is lost. The line is short. ubha-yokā-raṇo-papa-tteru-papatti-samaḥ (उभ-योका-रणो-पप-त्तेरु-पपत्ति-समः) from 5.1.25 is still in force. A sūtra (सूत्र) leaves a word out when the line before still holds it. That carrying is anuvṛtti (अनुवृत्ति).
