There is a small town near Shimoga in Karnataka where they use mainly Sanskrit in everyday speach. They also know Kannada :-D. This town has been speaking the language for many years now - everyone from the the shopkeepers to officials..
There is in Karnataka State a town, named Chikmanglore, where all its residents speak Sanskrit and carry on their day-to-day communications with one another in Sanskrit
Chikmagalur/Chikkamangalore/Chikmanglore is didtrict town after which whole district is called by that name. Indira Gandhi got back in parliament through that district in 1978.
Any idea such a significant fact as whole town speaking in Sanskrit is not noted by http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chikmagalur ?
May be you will be able to pursuade "Dr. Jai Maharaj" to disclose location of Sanskit speaking community he was raised in.
I believe that the first part of imemind's post was correct. The small town where Sanskrit is spoken by most, if not all, of its residents is Mattur (near Shivamogga or Shimoga). I am not sure about Chikmagalur.
Cheers
