An opportunity for students of IGNOU to study M.A. (Vedic)

Editorial comments

• The commendable decision of Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU) ! Veda has a great significance in the glorious culture of India; therefore, every university in India should take a similar decision of teaching Veda.
• In India, children are not taught Hindus’ Holy Scriptures since India is a secular country. As such, students are deprived of gaining valuable knowledge from Hindus’ Holy Scriptures. It is, therefore, time to change the Indian education system and it can be done only in Hindu Rashtra.

Delhi – IGNOU, Delhi has offered an opportunity to students to learn Veda for their M.A. examination i.e. M.A (Vedic). It will be an opportunity to study science, contemplations, etc from the Veda.
