Ballantyne (18131864) was a Scottish Orientalist renowned for his pivotal role in advancing the study of Indian languages and grammar during the 19th century. Between 1832 and 1845, he instructed Persian, Hindi, and Arabic at the Scottish Naval and Military Academy in Edinburgh, primarily catering to East India Company officers. Later, he assumed the role of superintendent at the Sanskrit College in Varanasi. Ballantyne authored grammatical works for Sanskrit, Hindi, and Marathi.
