The quantity n{sub p0}(0) is different from n{sub p0}(x) and same is true for v{sub p0}(0), v{sub p0}(x). Taking these differences into account and considering the mathematical relation v{sub p0}(x)= 1/n{sub p0}(x), it can easily be shown that derivatives of these space dependent densities and velocities are linked through the relation {partial_derivative}v{sub p0}(x)/{partial_derivative}{eta}=-1/n{sub p0}{sup 2}(x){partial_derivative}n{sub p0}(x)/{partial_derivative}{eta}. We show that constraint (1) of the comment can also be transformed to derivative transformation relation. This derivative transformation relation can be used in the derivation of the KdV like equation and our model is valid for inhomogenous pair ion plasma. We mathematically and physically prove that the objections in the comment are false and baseless.
