"We have taken many important steps on the subject of Vedas, including setting up a research center, purchasing land for Veda University, starting Sanskrit University in Kaithal after the name of Maharishi Valmiki, starting Gurukul in Mata Mansa Devi temple premises and establishing Sanskrit College, etc," said Sh. Manohar Lal.

He said that efforts were on to get Vedas and ancient knowledg again into the mainstream.

Patron, Vishva Hindu Parishad, Sh. Dinesh Chandra is doing a commendable job to realize the dream of the late Ashok Singhal had seen, said the Chief Minister.

Manohar Lal said that the late Sh. Ashok Singhal had an important contribution to changing the direction of his life.

The Chief Minister further shared that the late Singhal was the Pranth Pracharak of the Sangh for Haryana from 1977 to 1981, at the same time in 1977, he had become a volunteer of the Sangh because of the emergency.

"Had it not been an emergency, then I might not have been able to join the Sangh. At that time, due to the pain of emergency or curiosity, many people came closer to the Sangh and the organization got strengthened," said Sh. Manohar Lal.
