By | News/Events

FROM OUR PRESS RELEASE:

Bengaluru, Karnataka Sep 4, 2023 – DheeYantra, the creators of India’s cutting-edge conversational AI platform, Dhee.AI, proudly announces the launch of their Sanskrit website, धी.भारत, in commemoration of International Sanskrit Day. This momentous occasion represents a profound homage to the ancient pan-Indian language, Sanskrit, and its enduring influence on the rich linguistic tapestry of the Indian subcontinent.

International Sanskrit Day, celebrated on the 31st of August, holds immense significance for enthusiasts and scholars of this classical language. It is a day to celebrate the legacy of Sanskrit, which has played an indispensable role in shaping India’s diverse cultures and languages.

Sreekumar Jairaj, CEO of DheeYantra, expressed his contentment about the launch of धी.भारत, stated, “We believe this is a significant step forward in acknowledging the importance of Sanskrit in our cultural heritage. Sanskrit, often referred to as the ‘mother of languages,’ has a profound influence on the linguistic and cultural identities of people across India. With धी.भारत, we aim to pay homage to this timeless language and promote its enduring relevance in the modern era.”

“The launch of धी.भारत is an initiative aimed at igniting a trend across India’s enterprises and startups. We envision a landscape where every business launches a .भारत domain in Sanskrit, in parallel to their existing English websites. Such a trend will catalyze the creation of a substantial volume of Sanskrit content in the digital realm, which not only facilitates the development of deep learning applications on Sanskrit but also holds the potential to contribute to its resurgence as the prominent national language. We can even help the enterprises transliterate these websites in real-time so that people of different linguistic states can still read Sanskrit content in their own written script”, said Mr. Jairaj.

Sanskrit holds a special place in India’s history as the original pan-national language, fostering a linguistic connection that transcends regional boundaries. Its influence can be seen in the roots of many Indian languages, making it a common thread that unites people from diverse backgrounds. As the world embraces technology and innovation, DheeYantra takes pride in preserving the timeless wisdom of Sanskrit and making it accessible to a global audience.
