And there is no formalization of Sanskrit in Devanagari - We (Keralites) still use Grantha script to write Sanskrit - And a lot of late Sanskrit works have their origin in Kerala. Infact Malayalm script was invented to write Sanskrit with e

Not really, there is no evidence of Sanskrit being used for conversation other than in learned circles. Most of the Upanishads, Aranyakas and Puranas and the last two vedas were written after 500 BC. Kalidasa - arguably the greatest littera

As you rightly said, you can't take different stream courses in India, but that is where ingenuity shows. People step out of their academics and achieve proficiency in one or more unrelated fields - and since it is not so easy - only t

In my experience recruiting engineers, I have found brighter candidates outside the IIT system more often than not, who have invariably higher levels of extra curricular skills that translate well into excellence in jobs. I am afraid IITs a
