Sanskrit is an Old Indo-Aryan language of the ancient Indian subcontinent with a 3,500-year history. It is the primary sacred language of Hinduism and the predominant language of most works of Hindu philosophy as well as some of the principal texts of Buddhism and Jainism. Modern Sanskrit is traceable to the 2nd millennium BCE in a form known as Vedic Sanskrit, with the Rigveda as the earliest-known composition. A more refined and standardized grammatical form called Classical Sanskrit emerged in the mid-1st millennium BCE with the Aṣṭādhyāyī treatise of Pāṇini. Sanskrit is one of the 22 languages listed in the Eighth Schedule of the Constitution of India. In the 2011 Census of India, 24,821 Indians out of about 1.21 billion reported Sanskrit to be their mother tongue. In modern times, the first Sanskrit University was Sampurnanand Sanskrit University, established in 1791 in the Indian city of Varanasi.

  • Leakproof Form-Work Gives Long Lasting Concrete
    REGIONAL DEVELOPMENTS THROUGH AVIATION IN INDIA—CREATION OF NEW REGIONAL AIRPORTS AND REGIONAL AIRLINES —CreationRegionalCurrent Developments in Air and SpaceDevelopments Lawof new Regional through airports aviation and Regionalin India airlines Debabrat Mishra* Introduction One of the fastest growing aviation industries in the world is Indian Aviation Industry. With the liberalization of the Indian aviation sector, a rapid revolution has undergone in Indian aviation industry. Primarily it was a government-owned industry, but now it is dominated by privately owned full service airlines and low cost carriers. Around 75% share of the domestic aviation market is shared by private airlines. Earlier only few people could afford air travel, but now it can be afforded by a large number of people as it has become much cheaper because of stiff competition. The civil aviation traffic has seen an unprecedented traffic in the past few years on account of booming Indian economy, growing tourism industry, and entry of low cost carriers in the private sector, liberalization of international bi-lateral agreements and liberalization of civil aviation policy. In future also the civil aviation traffic is expected to grow at the same pace despite current slowdown due to global recession. But airport infrastructure has not kept pace with the growth of the civil aviation traffic. This has resulted in congestion and inefficient services in major airports, limited landing slots, inadequate parking bays and congestion during peak hours for airlines. Development of quality infrastructure will have an impact on international competitiveness and economic growth. This requires faster development of civil aviation infrastructure on public private partnership mode.

Monetising of the fiscal deficit by the RBI was not currently on the table. Direct and indirect tax collections in the June quarter were encouraging and daily e-way bill data is also showing a positive trend. All these developments are actually giving an encouraging signal that the economy is coming back to the rate sooner than what was being anticipated. If the current uptick continues without additional shocks, the sharp contraction forecast by several agencies for the current fiscal won't come to pass. Localised shutdowns on account of Covid-19 outbreaks have prompted the further lowering of GDP estimates. It is expected that there will be a 9.5% contraction in GDP in the current year against its initial 5% shrinkage estimate, citing a setback to the recovery seen in June due to the mini lockdowns. The government was open to borrowing more to boost spending on infrastructure but monetising the fiscal deficit by the RBI was not under consideration.
