invited him as a representative speaker of jainology. He was also invited by many universities and Jain institutions in America for delivering lectures on different aspects of jainology.

More. selected books for the convienience of the student were added in even the B. H.U. teachers & students visits this library use the books. It has all accomplished due to his dedication and hardwork.
He has also taken keen interest in higher studies of the Jain sadhus and sadhvies, many sadhu and sadhvies came to Vidyashram for higher studies and Dr. Sagarmal did his utmost in helping them to complete their studies.
He is a noble, polite, Social and a man of intergrity, these are the qualities which have made -him very popular in India and abroad as a authority on Jainology. Due to not keeping good health now a-days for the time being he has left Vidyashram. I prey to God for his early recovery so that he can guide the work of the vidyashram for many years to come.
