{'nyaya': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'judicial processes': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'judiciary': [1, 0, 0, 2], 'justice': [1, 0, 0, 0], 'concept': [8, 3, 5, 11], 'constitution': [39, 3, 11, 39], 'law': [0, 0, 0, 1], 'societies': [0, 0, 1, 0], 'standards': [0, 0, 2, 6], 'democracy': [9, 0, 2, 2], 'universal theories': [0, 0, 1, 0]}

The author defines nyaya as a concept of justice that combines theories of justice with the practices of democracy. This means that nyaya is not just a theoretical concept, but it also takes into account the practical aspects of justice within a democratic society.

Option 1: Judiciary and judicial processes is not the correct answer because nyaya goes beyond just the judiciary. It includes theories of justice and democracy as well.

Option 2: The rule of law and the Constitution is also not the correct answer because while nyaya does consider the rule of law and the Constitution, it is not limited to just those aspects. It encompasses a broader understanding of justice and democracy.

Option 4: Universal theories of justice that are applicable as standards in all societies is not the correct answer because nyaya is specifically related to the combination of theories of justice with the practices of democracy. It is not a universal theory that applies to all societies in the same way.

In conclusion, the correct answer is option 3, as it accurately describes nyaya as a concept of justice that combines theories of justice with the practices of democracy.
