n a significant cultural and developmental event, Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath inaugurated a new Sanskrit program and laid the foundation stone for various schemes at the Panchajanya Auditorium in Mathura.
The event marked a notable step in the promotion of Sanskrit and the development of the region.
The highlight of the evening was the unveiling of the Panchajanya Rangmanch, a newly established theatre named with a nod to its auspicious heritage.
The theatre's name, "Panchajanya," carries historical and cultural significance.
At the event, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP Hema Malini, also presented a Sanskrit dance program, adding a cultural flourish to the occasion.
She also elaborated on the choice of the name, stating, "Panchajanya is such a pure name... Many people are not aware of this word..."
"Lord Krishna received this title after killing Shankasur. The main reason behind giving the name 'Panchajanya' to this theatre is that we want the music coming out of here to be auspicious for the whole country," she added.
