Sanskrit Plays Crucial Role in Cultural Revival and Nation's Progress: Shah

The Modi government is giving new life to the ancient languages of the country by connecting them with modern technology and lifestyle," said Union Home Minister Amit Shah on Sunday, speaking at the closing ceremony of the 1008 "Sanskrit Sambhashan Shivirs." Shah asserted that there is no opposition to any language in India, emphasizing that no one can be separated from their mother tongue. He highlighted that Sanskrit is the mother of nearly all Indian languages, and its promotion is not only a cultural imperative but also vital to the overall development of the nation.
