Sanskrit is used for day to day talk in Mattur (karnataka) and four other villages elsewhere.  Thus there is no one district where people use sanskrit. surprisingly, Himachal Pradesh government has declared Sanskrit as associate official language but no official work is done in this language.

While appreciating the decision of HP by declaring Sanskrit as Associate Official language, it hasn't done any official work in Sanskrit. This itself says Sanskrit as an official language is practically of no use.

Then why make this associate official language. Is this not mockery.

Certainly a Mockery. The HP government wants to say that it is respecting an ancient language.

 

 

Today Sanskrit is only used by "Pundit" during marriages. Once it was the mother tongue of India, but with time and due to different rulers in India like Mughals and Britishers, languages has changed and our mother tongue is Hindi.

Hindi is not the Mother tongue of all Indians. The Mother tongue of people in Kerala is Malayalam. Kannada is the Mother tongue of people in Karnataka. The Mother tongue of people in  Andhra and Telangana is Telugu

Hindi was declared as an official language and not a national language.

Most of the valuable ancient literatures, both oral and written, of our great India which we are proud of were in Sanskrit language. May be Sanskrit will not earn us money; it has no utility in the present world; and may be the grammar is tougher; …..but I think it is the most beautiful language in the world. (And of course it depends on the concept of beauty of each individual).

Sanskrit is said to be the Mother of all languages.

Here is an interesting article about the Sanskrit language. It may not be in vogue now. But it's greatness remains for ever.

one of the most important factor which makes the languages easier to learn us fast is eagerness and passion to learn that 

Along with the Passion, there should be Hard work. Without handwork nothing is possible.
