The Ministry of Culture today launched the ‘Gyan Bharatam’, a landmark national initiative dedicated to preserving, digitising, and disseminating India’s manuscript heritage.
To mark this occasion, the Ministry organized the first-ever Gyan Bharatam International Conference on ‘Reclaiming India’s Knowledge Legacy through Manuscript Heritage’ from 11-13 September 2025 at Vigyan Bhawan, New Delhi.
Bringing together over 1,100 participants including scholars, experts, institutions, and cultural practitioners from India and abroad, the conference has created a collaborative platform for discussion, deliberation, and charting the way forward in preserving, digitising, and sharing India’s manuscript wealth with the world.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi will attend the conference on 12 September to listen to the presentations of the working groups and will address the gathering thereafter.
The three-day deliberations will conclude with the valedictory session on 13 September, which will be chaired by the Home Minister of India, Amit Shah.
