Sanskrit must reach every household in India, become daily communication language: RSS chief Bhagwat
Nagpur (PTI): Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) chief Mohan Bhagwat on Friday said Sanskrit is the mother of all Indian languages and it should become a medium of communication and reach every household in the country.
He pitched for preservation and propagation of Sanskrit and called it a language which "develops our emotions (bhav)" and added everyone should know the ancient tongue.
Speaking at the inauguration of a building at Kavi Kulguru Kalidas Sanskrit University in Nagpur, Bhagwat noted there is a difference between understanding Sanskrit and being able to converse in the language.
The Sanskrit university will receive government patronage, but people's support is also necessary, he said.
Bhagwat said Sanskrit is the mother of all languages of India and for it to grow further, it must be used by people in their daily life.
"We need to learn to speak this language in our daily communication. It should become the language of daily communication. I have learnt the language, but am not able to speak it fluently. Sanskrit needs to reach every household, and communication in the language is needed," the RSS chief stressed.
Bhagwat affirmed there is unanimity over the need to become 'atmanirbhar' (self-reliant) and display 'swabal' (self strength) for which "we need to develop our intellect and knowledge".
He emphasised that the strength of Bharat is its 'swatwa' - that is the feeling of ownership by self-reliance.
"Swatwa is not materialistic, but individuality and it is conveyed through language," Bhagwat insisted. He added that knowing Sanskrit is like understanding the country.
Bhagwat inaugurated the Abhinav Bharti International Academic building at the university. The RSS chief noted that while Western societies talk about "global market", "we speak about global family", characterised by the concept of 'Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam (the world is one family").
He said Westerners developed the idea of a "global market" which has "failed" now.
Bhagwat spoke about India hosting the G20 Summit in 2023 during its presidency of the grouping and pointed out that its theme was 'Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam'.
In his speech, Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis highlighted the rich heritage of Sanskrit and ensured all support from his government for development of the language.

Bank account in Ramgarh tracked for fraudulent fund transactions across 24 states, 4 arrested
Ramgarh (Jharkhand) (PTI): Jharkhand police on Thursday said it has unearthed a network of interstate cyber frauds and arrested four miscreants for fraudulent transactions through a bank account in Ramgarh district after complaints of 274 suspected transactions in 24 states.
The states where complaints for fraudulent transactions were registered included Maharashtra, Karnataka, West Bengal, Uttar Pradesh, Telangana, Tamil Nadu, Kerala and Andhra Pradesh.
The action followed inputs received through 'Samanvaya portal', a centralised, web-based platform launched by the Union Home Ministry to curb cybercrime.
"We arrested four cyber miscreants after a current account with Kuju (Ramgarh) branch of the State Bank of India was found to have registered suspected financial transactions in 24 states with the help of the Pratibimba portal of the Home Ministry through the Samanvaya portal," Ramgarh Superintendent of Police Mukesh Kumar Lunayat said.
During the probe, police found that the account was opened under the MSME Udyam Registration scheme in the name of Shree Ganesh Enterprises, he said.
The account had been linked to as many as 274 complaints from different states related to cyber fraud and illegal fund transfers.
The registered proprietors of the enterprise were identified as Rahul Gupta (37), Ravi Kumar Verma (34), and Ajay Sharma (33), all residents of Ramgarh district, a statement from the Ramgarh police said.
During interrogation, Rahul Gupta and Ravi Kumar Verma revealed that they had opened multiple current accounts at the behest of Ritesh Agrawal alias Munna (40) and Sonu Kumar Jha (34).
They admitted receiving Rs 1.2 lakh in exchange for facilitating the opening of these accounts.
"The accused further confessed to sharing OTPs, activating mobile banking services, and handing over control of the accounts to the main operators through WhatsApp and Telegram groups. These accounts were then allegedly used to route fraudulent transactions.
Police said mobile data analysis of the accused led to the recovery of crucial digital evidence, including details of SIM cards, bank accounts, passbooks, ATM cards, QR code scanners, Aadhaar cards, and PAN cards shared through messaging platforms.
A total of four accused have been arrested so far and sent to judicial custody.
A case has been registered at the Cyber Crime Police Station under relevant sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) 2023 and Sections 66C and 66D of the Information Technology Act, 2000.
Further investigation is underway, the police said.
