India’s Prime Minister Manmohan Singh says the government will increase its efforts to promote and strengthen the Sanskrit language.
“Like the civilisation of India, Sanskrit does not belong to any particular race, sect or religion. It represents a culture that is not narrow and sectarian but open tolerant and all-embracing… It is this spirit of liberalism and tolerance embedded in Sanskrit that we must inculcate in our present day life,” the Prime Minister said.
