Description:

This long essay by the Secretary, Department of Culture in the Government of India looks at the relationship of the Indian state with art and culture within the country, both historically as well as in contemporary times. It suggests that the government has followed a fairly consistent policy vis-a-vis sponsorship and patronage of art and culture since the time of Nehru and Maulana Azad (some of whose correspondence in this subject is also included for the first time).
