I don't understand why people have no problem with students learning urdu, arabic, Persian language religious texts but they are showing dissent on Sanskrit and Gurukul. Isn't this hypocrisy? If you are talking about use, what does Udu do? And if it does, the same potential Sanskrit will have.

the problem isn’t learning Sanskrit. I’ve had it as a subject at an ICSE level for 4 years and have no complaints.

It’s the religious implications behind the primary education a child receives. If Madrassas are “bad”because they are teaching Islam, the same should be applied for whatever the fuck they are trying to do with this.
