This endowment was started by Travancore Royal family. Reason Mukundan gave for his decision is that Lord padmanabha Swamy is not secular! ( Under new circumstances does Communist party ready to brand Lord padmanabha Swamy as communal? ).When first Sanskrit University was started in Kerala, the Vice Chancellor appointed by the politicians not even know how to read Hindi. When complained Sukumar Azheecode’s explanation was – No where in constitution it says that Sanskrit university vice chancellor should know Sanskrit!
