Increasingly Sanskrit has become a language appropriated by Hindutva forces, used for a political agenda. The Left on the other hand often emphasised Sanskrit's link with the liturgical tradition of Hinduism.

In 24 Hours, we try to go beyond the limited politics and dip in to the stunning world of a great classical language.
