Welcome to Political Affairs!

In this video, we have Akash, who has successfully cleared JRF (Junior Research Fellowship) in Sanskrit. Previously, we discussed CUET PG with him, and today, he shares his JRF preparation strategy—what worked, what challenges he faced, and how aspirants can achieve the same success.

Akash’s Journey in Sanskrit Studies:
Akash hails from Rudraprayag, Uttarakhand. His education began at Vidya Bharati Shishu Mandir, followed by studies in Dehradun and then Gurukul Rishikesh. He completed his Shastri (B.A. in Sanskrit) in Navyavyakaran (Modern Sanskrit Grammar) from Haridwar and later pursued B.Ed at Lal Bahadur Shastri Central Sanskrit University. He then moved to JNU (Jawaharlal Nehru University) for higher studies, where he aimed for JRF from day one.

JRF Preparation Strategy:
Understand the Complete Syllabus – JRF Sanskrit has 10 units, 5 are general and 5 are subject-specific. Knowing the syllabus thoroughly is crucial.

Study Standard Texts – Read original Sanskrit texts, followed by reference books. Utilize senior students’ resources and notes.

Unit-wise Books & Strategy:

Vedic Literature – Study Vedas, Brahmanas, Aranyakas, Upanishads, and Vedangas.

Sanskrit Grammar (Vyakarana) – Focus on Panini’s Ashtadhyayi, Sandhi, Samasa, and linguistic theories.

Sanskrit Literature – Study works of Kalidasa, Bhasa, Bhavabhuti, and classical Sanskrit poetry & drama.

Dharma Shastra & Inscriptions – Read Manusmriti, Yajnavalkya Smriti, and Ashokan inscriptions.

Linguistics – Essential for those interested in language studies beyond Sanskrit.

Use Online & Offline Resources:

Books: Sanskrit Pratishparadha Prakash

YouTube Channels: Sanskrit Space, Arun Pandey's Saral Sanskrit Grammar

Websites: SanskritExam.com (for PYQs and study material)

Practice PYQs (Previous Year Questions): This is the best way to understand exam patterns.

Why JRF Matters?
Financial Stability – JRF provides a stipend, making research financially feasible.

Academic Recognition – Qualifying JRF is a significant academic achievement.

Ph.D. Admissions – JRF holders get priority in Ph.D. admissions at top universities like JNU.
