Though the state government has provided 100 acres of land near Magadi, the university has not taken measures to build a campus due to shortage of funds. There are 14 Sanskrit colleges in the State, which are affiliated to the university. At present, the university is functioning on the campus of the Sri Chamarajendra Sanskrit College in Bangalore. The university was established in 2010 by the Karnataka Government. Karnataka Sanskrit University has been formed exclusively for the development of Sanskrit language. Sanskrit has a hoary, scientific, literary, cultural tradition and heritage.
