The Banaras Hindu University (BHU) has launched a postgraduate degree in ‘Hindu Dharma,’ which the university claims is the country’s first of its type.
The course will be taught in partnership with the philosophy and religion departments, as well as the departments of Sanskrit and ancient Indian history, culture, and archaeology.
After launching the postgraduate program on January 18, 2022, Shukla announced that 45 students, including an international student, had enrolled in the inaugural session.
The program was created with the goal of bringing the world’s attention to numerous previously unknown facets of ‘Hindu Dharma’ and spreading its teachings to a wider audience.
