Jammu: Shri Kailakh Jyotish avim Vedic sansthan Trust organized an awareness rally in Kangrail village from Government High School Kangrail to promote the divine language Sanskrit and to raise awareness about drug prevention as part of Sanskrit Month. The rally sent a message to the community to stay away from drugs and emphasized the importance of Sanskrit. Tree planting and distribution were also part of the event. The chief guest at the event was former minister Sham Lal Sharma.
On this occasion, Sham Lal Sharma said that organizing an anti-drug rally to raise awareness about the harmful effects of drug use is a commendable initiative by the Trust. Education is the only way to eradicate the evils of drug abuse, and if one must indulge, let it be in education, as it is the powerful path forward. Mahant Rohit Shastri is making an invaluable contribution to the promotion and development of the Sanskrit language in India. We should make every effort to promote Sanskrit, which is the foundation of all languages.
Dil Bahadur Singh Jamwal stated that efforts should be made to teach Sanskrit language to children at home, and only then can we advise others to use this language.
Samaj sevi Rajan Sharma explained how drug addiction not only deteriorates our physical health but also affects our mental, economic, and family life. If someone is caught in its grip, we must make efforts to bring them out of it with strong willpower. I hope that efforts by Mahant Rohit Shastri to promote Sanskrit will be supported by other parts of society, and Sanskrit will once again become a prevalent language in Jammu and Kashmir.
Mahant Rohit Shastri mentioned that without the divine language Sanskrit, knowledge of Indian culture and tradition is incomplete. Sanskrit is written as it is spoken. Many words from the Sanskrit language are used in Hindi and other Indian languages. The dictionary grows from Sanskrit. Language is the medium through which humans think. Therefore, to enrich our thinking language, we must follow the path that promotes Sanskrit.
On this occasion, the school principal Rakesh Verma, former Sarpanch of Kangrail Dr. Shallu Sharma, Naresh Raina, Uttam Chand Sharma, Master Vijay Sharma, Kailash Sharma, Brahma Nand, Subhash Chandra, Vinod Sharma, Sunny Jaat, Manisha Devi, Dwarka Nath, Ramesh Chandra, Dershna Devi, Ravinder Sharma, and other Trust members were present.
