## TL;DR

This paper proposes a unified theoretical framework involving new particles like leptoquarks and diquarks to explain anomalies in B decays, neutrino masses, and the B→πK puzzle, predicting effects in rare nonleptonic B decays.

## Contribution

It introduces a consistent model linking B decay anomalies, neutrino masses, and the B→πK puzzle using new particles, which is a novel comprehensive approach.

## Key findings

- A viable model explaining B decay anomalies and neutrino masses.
- Predictions for specific rare nonleptonic B decays.
- Connection between semi-leptonic and non-leptonic B decay puzzles.

## Abstract

Anomalies in semi-leptonic $B$ decays could indicate new physics beyond the standard model(SM). There is an older puzzle in non-leptonic $B \to \pi K$ decays. The new particles, leptoquarks and diquarks, required to solve the semi-leptonic and the non-leptonic puzzles can also generate neutrino masses and mixing at loop level. We show that a consistent framework to explain the $B$ anomalies and the neutrino masses is possible and we make predictions for certain rare nonleptonic $B$ decays.
