there is a journal called "drk" fully dedicated to critical evaluation of modern samskrita literature. it is published from Allahabad. most of the contemporary critics and poets publish their critiques and poetries therein. it is edited by Banamali Biswal who can be contacted by , "banamali biswal" <banamali7@gmail.com>.
offcourse there are many a seminars organised on this subject by many poets. you can contack prof. Tarashankara sharma on who organised/part of some of these seminars. he can be contacted prof.tspandeya@gmail.com, whose father Pandit Mohanlal sharma, is a recipient of many awards in poetry like Padmini etc.
since I have nothing to do with poetry, I have no biblio records on hand.

Dear friends,

I can inform of some names and publications but am unable to provide any internet link.

Sitanath Acharya: ‘Modern Sanskrit literature and contemporary society’ pp.14-26, Sanskrit Studies Modern Sensibilities UGC-Academic Staff College and Department of Sanskrit, University of Calcutta, April 2004. The article is in Bengali but the bibliographical details of cited publications are in English

Dipak Ghosh ‘Sanskrit Sensitivities with reference to two modern Sanskrit Lyrics—Vilāpapañcikā and Rājanītilāmṛtam’ ibid pp.153-160.

Both the above authors themselves wrote many poems in Sanskrit.

The most successful Sanskrit poet in twentieth century Bengal was Śrījīva Nyāyatīrtha whose books are available in print with the two or three traditional dealers in Sanskritic books in Calcutta.

In the nineties there were some attempts to start projects on modern creative Sanskrit literature in some Universities of South Bengal and by some interested persons.  I cannot inform on their results. As far as I remember Dr. Rita Chatterjee of the Jadavpur University was sometimes engaged in research on twentieth century Sanskrit literature. Perhaps, herself not a creative writer she looked informative to me. She might have brought about some publications on the subject.

Best
