I was involved in the discussion thread as well; I am in touch with the people from Samskrita Bharati. The last I heard from them was around 2 months ago, and they seemed to say that the grants are to be approved by the cabinet.
Since interest in this grant has renewed among editors, I will ask the representative from Samskrita Bharati for an update on this.

Hi
The issue about a 1 Cr. grant from Karnataka government for Sanskrit wikipedia was brought up on this list earlier, last year.
I saw this recent discussion on Sanskrit Wikipedia between a couple of editors about that grant and support from Samskrita Bharati, have their been any new developments related to it?
