Your welcome:).
In Indian schools, it's not just happening at the teachers level.
It's happening at the level of people who set the syllabus.
They decided to include Sanskrit in the syllabus and not German and French as Sanskrit is India's ancient language.
I agree with Sanskrit being really old and scientific, but the students should be given the right to choose between German/french/Sanskrit.
If the has plans to go to Germany to do his Engineering than how can Sanskrit help him over German?

Yes! Schools are so focused on "one-size-fits-all" solutions when every student is an individual human being with individual and highly varied interests. Learning is best done when the student enjoys and has a deep interest in the subject!
