SANSKRIT SHIKSHAN PRASHIKSHAN EVAM GYAN VIGYAN SAMVARDHAN KENDRA
Sanskrit Shikshan Prashikshan Evam Gyan Vigyan Samvardhan Kendra was established by the State University in the year 2008. The main purpose of establishing this department was the propagation of Sanskrit language to common masses. The Maharshi Panini Sanskrit Evam Vedic Vishwavidyalaya was working at its level to impart the knowledge of Sanskrit to the students. However, gradually it was realized that formal education is not sufficient. More efforts have to be made for the propagation of Sanskrit language. Therefore, a new center was opened. This center holds different programs and activities which takes Sanskrit language to the people in society.
The center has its office in Ujjain and its working area is throughout Madhya Pradesh. The sole motto of establishing this center was to make people familiar to Sanskrit language in the society. Only then the target of Maharshi Maharshi Panini Sanskrit Evam Vedic Vishwavidyalaya can be accomplished.
