These two remote villages have adapted Sanskrit as their language of communication. They are not only speaking Sanskrit but have also adapted sanatan culture in their daily life which is reflected in their Vedic chantings and performing yagyas as they perform it on a monthly basis. The villagers have also translated many translating folk songs into Sanskrit and this has helped them achieve a very unique position.
