Your default language for polygliglossia is defined as English. You
switch to Sanskrit only inside the \skt macro. The text in Devanagari
is therefore hyphenated according to Sanskrit rules but the
transliterated text is hyphenated according to the English rules. You
have to switch the language to Sanskrit also for the transliterated
text.
