Abstract
This note tries to answer issues raised in Bhardwaj and Kumar (J Optim Theory Appl 163(2): 685–696, 2014). The research summarizes that the results obtained in Khan et al. (J Optim Theory Appl 159: 536–546, 2013) are sound and correct and it fulfills all the necessary requirements of its scope and objectives.
