Narendra Modi greets nation on Sanskrit Day

New Delhi, Aug 7 (IBNS): Prime Minister Narendra Modi has greeted the nation on the Sanskrit Day and shared his greetings with the people in Sanskrit.

The Sanskrit text is as follows: 
“भारतस्य समृद्धः इतिहासः संस्कृतिः परम्परा च संस्कृते अस्ति। संस्कृतस्य ज्ञानम् अस्मान् तेन समृद्ध-वैभवोपेत-अतीतेन सह योजयति।“

“संस्कृतप्रेमिभ्यः तथा च अस्याः सुन्दर्याः भाषायाः पठितृभ्यः सर्वेभ्यः संस्कृतदिवस-सन्दर्भे मम हार्दिक-शुभकामनाः।”

It implies that India’s rich history, culture and tradition are in Sanskrit.

The knowledge of Sanskrit connects us with our rich literature, heritage and glorious past. On the occasion of Sanskrit Day I extend my heartfelt greetings to the scholars and students of this beautiful language.
