"We also impressed upon the Germans that Sanskrit was not taught in Germany in place of German language but only as an additional language, whereas it was replacing an Indian language in India," said Monica Arora, Sangh's lawyer who was present in the meeting. The agreement signed in 2011 was due for renewal, but the government has not agreed to renew the same this year. Sanskrit Sangh officials explained to the German side that the agreement signed between India and Germany for teaching German as a third language in KVs was in violation of both National Education Policy as well as three-language formula. During the meeting, the German side did not seek reconsideration of Sanskrit Sangh's opposition to German being taught as a third language in KV schools, but sought more cooperation for promotion of the two languages that shared a lot common.
