In a communication sent to all Kendriya Vidyalayas, the KVS asked them to hire teachers on contract basis for teaching Sanskrit.
Officials said though there was a policy of teaching Sanskrit as an elective subject, it was not being strictly followed and hence recruitment of Sanskrit teachers was stopped way back in 1980s.
The decision of reviving Sanskrit as an elective in Classes XI and XII was taken at the 99th meeting of the Board of Governors of KVS held on October 27.
"The Board approved the proposal to offer teaching of Sanskrit language in Class XI from session 2015-16 in all Kvs having senior secondary classes. Sanskrit (core) will be offered as one of the options in lieu of an elective subject. For this teachers may be appointed initially on contract basis," the communication said.
