																			(CASS)was 
																			established 
																			in 1964 
																			as an 
																			independent 
																			research 
																			oriented 
																			Department 
																			in the 
																			University 
																			of Pune 
																			for 
																			training 
																			scholars 
																			and 
																			promoting 
																			higher 
																			studies 
																			in Sanskrit 
																			learning.
