The increase in globalization has led to an increase in demand for knowledge of various languages.
As a result, over the past five years, Sanskrit’s popularity has also risen.
BA, MA and PhD courses are usually taught in more than 17 Sanskrit universities in this country.
In addition, part-time sessions are also being arranged, both in India and abroad, for those who are interested in exploring Sanskrit.

All EntrompassingMahavir Agarwal, Pro Vice-Chancellor, Patanjali University, Haridwar, said that the idea of pre-contained about Sanskrit difficulties hampered its popularity.
“Three decades ago, several organizations were aware of hidden information in Sanskrit text.
More people believe that Sanskrit is only a means of doing Hindu rituals,” Agarwal said, which is a former VC University of Sansechrit Uttarakhand, Haridwar.
Each subject mainstream in the field of education is mentioned in a number of ancient Sanskrit texts, attracting students and elders to language, adding agarwal.
JSR Prasad, Head of Department (HOD), Sanskrit Studies, Hyderabad University, added that contrary to the belief in Sanskrit text was religious-centric, more than 90% of Sanskrit literature was secular and had cross relevance.
Link to Ayurveda.
Prasad said that in addition to solutions to physical and psychological illness in humans, Upanishads and Vedas provided details about Ayurveda Vriksha (plants) as well.
“Sanskrit is a scientific language, and is considered the root of the 6,000-year-old Ayurveda philosophy.
I feel that even modern medicine does not have the depth offered by Ayurveda,” he said.
Grammar is everything
“The system needs to be built where grammar is used in Sanskrit (Grammar Panini), to work as a medium between the language of the source and the purpose language on the computer,” Agarwal added.
The advantage of Sanskrit is there is no difference between reading, writing, and speaking Sanskrit.
Thus, it is not as difficult as often believed, “he added.
In addition to its use on a computer, Sanskrit Grammar is also a base for millions of words in all of Indian and Global languages, adding Prasad.
“Take the word sanskrit root, and you can form a number of words used in languages around the world,” he said.
Rise up popularity
National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 has emphasized interdisciplinary courses.
“Whether a student wants to specialize in science, mathematics, management, or human rights, smoothness in Sanskrit will open the door with the knowledge trapped in Sanskrit text.
This will help students become experts in the chosen field,” Agarwal said.
“The increase in awareness about the widespread use of Sanskrit, such as Mattur Village in Karnataka, where only Sanskrit language speaking conversations, also violated myths about their popularity,” added Prasad.
He said that the central government’s efforts, in the form of a junior research scholarship by the Grants University (UGC) Commission and several scholarships abroad, also increased the popularity of Sanskrit.
Being ready in the future
There is time when Sanskrit is considered a forgotten language, but no more.
Hare Ram Tripathi, Deputy Kanskrit, Sansech Vishwavidyalaya, Varanasi, said that students take Sanskrit language courses with various purposes in mind.
“Many my students take the civil service exam, choose Sanskrit as their special subjects,” he said.
Apart from academics, Sanskrit scholars have the freedom to become experts in their chosen field.
“Some of my students have gone as anchor news in Doordarshan, or have become ‘Dharam Gurus’ in the Army, among other professions,” VC said from the 230-year-old Sanskrit University in the country.
About increasing the number of students who take Sanskrit today, Tripathi revealed that the batch of his university currently has around 1800 students in total.
“Instead of making efforts to increase the number of Sanskrit scholars, we must focus on quality.
Anyone who claims to be a Sanskrit Bachelor must be able to fulfill this statement and make the nation proud, wherever he goes,” Tripathi said.
