Founded in 1938 by Dr. K.M. Munshi, Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan is today an All India intellectual, cultural and educational movement dedicated to the twin task of interpreting the age old yet ageless message of our country and of integrating our varied and vibrant culture with the changing needs of the present day world.

During the seven decades of its existence, the Bhavan has come to be recognised as a symbol of India’s glorious past and as a comprehensive national institution with an international outlook touching all aspects of life and enriching all spheres of activity.

Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan conducts classes from Kindergarten to Post Graduate research and imparts education in subjects ranging from Carnatic Music to Engineering, from Sanskrit to Business Management and from Yoga to Journalism. This is being accomplished through its centres spread all over the country and abroad, through cultural and educational programmes it conducts from time to time and above all through personal discussions and dialogue.
