Rajnath Singh visits Ayodhya to inaugurate Sanskrit college

Indian Defence Minister Rajnath Singh visited Ayodhya on Monday to participate in the Shri Guru Purnima Mahamahotsav and a saints' conference. During the visit, Singh inaugurated the newly constructed building of the Shri Narayan Sanskrit Mahavidyalaya, an institution with roots dating back to 1912.

Addressing the gathering, Singh emphasized the global potential of Sanskrit, stating that the language has historically elevated India's knowledge and science and possesses the capacity to guide the world. He also highlighted the significance of Vedic Mathematics, describing it as unparalleled.

Singh characterized Ayodhya not merely as a pilgrimage site, but as a center of consciousness, culture, and civilization. The event was part of the concluding programs for the Guru Parv Mahotsav at the Udasin Rishi Ashram, with Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath also expected to attend.
