Sanskrit Tools Hyderabad Central University
NEW DELHI: Amid an uproar over the alleged bias in the National Education Policy, the Centre is now looking to move ahead on its push.The Union human resource development ministry is preparing to set up the country’s first central universities for Sanskrit — by converting three existing institutes to central varsities through a single umbrella legislation.An unfinished agenda from the first stint of the Modi government that could not pass through in the election year, the Sanskrit varsity legislation is planned for the next Parliament session. The will be seeking inter-ministerial views on its fresh cabinet note this week, ET has gathered.The Rashtriya Sanskrit Sansthan and Rashtriya Sanskrit Vidyapeeth in Delhi and the Rashtriya Sanskrit Vidyapeeth in Tirupati are the three institutes lined up for the central varsity status.While the Sansthan dates back to 1970, Lal Bahadur Shastri Rsahtriya Sanskrit Vidyapeeth was set up in 1962. The Rashtriya Sanskrit Vidyapeeth in Tirupati came up in 1961. All three were granted deemed university status by the UGC later.There are 41 central universities in the country at present.
The coveted status, that is conferred by an Act of Parliament, brings considerable prestige with it as well as a fair degree of autonomy to the institution.It is also argued that while there are already two language specific central universities — The English and Foreign Language University (EFLU) and the (MANUU) (both in Hyderabad) — there is no Sanskritbased central university.The case for central varsity status to the Sanskrit institutes is also being made as the elevation has little financial implication. All three are already fully government funded and once declared central varsities, they will be funded through by the UGC.The case was especially made for Delhi’s Rashtriya Sanskrit Sansthan which has expanded hugely and over 60 institutions are affiliated with it.An exception was in fact made for the Sansthan under the Modi regime, which waived off clauses in the deemed university regulations in 2015 to allow the institute to set up more than the permitted off campus centres.
