Let us bring Sanskrit back to our daily life. This is the vision with which samskrutam.com started. It is an effort to spread Sanskrit using the available online technology. Its aim is to provide an effective source of learning and knowing Sanskrit language and literature. Besides this it also aims to provide a central reference point to other initiatives which are going on to spread Sanskrit.

In early 2005 Biswajit Dash, Jyoti Prakash Mishra, Indrajit Dash and Anuja Satapathy all from the city of temples, Bhubaneswar, as a group started the online initiative. On 23rd April 2005 samskrutam.com was published. Initial contents on Sanskrit were prepared and published. From that time much more contents on different aspects of Sanskrit have been added to the website. Over the time other like minded people started extending their help to make samskrutam.com achieve its aim of spreading Sanskrit. The members are from different sphere of life and profession. Here is a brief introduction to each of them.


Group Members

* Biswajit Dash samskrutam.com is the brain child of Biswajit; and he is behind the language research and content preparation of the website since the day of its inception in 2005. It is his task to collect information on different aspects of Sanskrit, procuring books from publishers and co-ordinating the overall activities of samskrutam.com.

* Anuja Satapathy Anuja reviews the contents of the pages before they are published. Each and every page of the site first goes through her edit, which helps avoid many initial errors.

* Jyoti Prakash Misra Jyoti Prakash has been the key person in making the Online Dictionary a reality.

After giving 22 years to a successful banking career as a Bank Officer in one of the large banks, Aasthaa has now set-up a Trust for reviving and highlighting the glory of ancient India.
