Mahant Rohit Shastri, the head of the Trust, stated that during Sanskrit Month, 19 programmes were organized to promote the divine language Sanskrit, including events on de-addiction, cyber security, tree plantation, and anti-drug rallies.
The primary objective of the Trust is to bring Sanskrit into every household. He urged the Lieutenant Governor of Jammu & Kashmir, Manoj Sinha, to introduce Sanskrit from the first grade in schools and to establish a Sanskrit University in Jammu & Kashmir.
