The ceremony was held to make merit for late lecturers who taught the Pali and Sanskrit languages. The Princess got a Master&rsquo;s degree in Pali and Sanskrit from the faculty in 1981. 
The Princess also gave an opportunity for the lecturers of the Pali Sanskrit Club to pour water on her hands as blessings on the occasion of Songkran, which falls on Friday.
