Here is a nice write-up on Dr. S. Ahmed, a PhD in Sanskrit from Gauhati University. He sounds like a knowledgable person when it comes to history, language, culture and real life, very interesting.

"Another reason, he cites is Sanskrit could provide students with better grasp of history as almost all the ancient texts and inscriptions in India are written in that language. Even to know the Assamese language better, or learn the roots of many words, Sanskrit is the language of choice, he claims."

 

It would be great if scholars like him also come and join Assam Net.
