Sahitya Kala Parishad, the cultural wing of the Government of NCT of Delhi was setup in 1968 for the promotion and propagation of Art and Culture in Delhi. As one of the most interactive department of the Delhi Government, Sahitya Kala Parishad for the past three decades and more, has been carrying out its mandate with full vigor and dedication. The Parishad has, on one hand, revived and projected the age old, time tested traditions of the country and on the other hand, it has tried to encourage and provide platform to the new and innovative trends in plastic and performing arts which represent our lives and times. Parishad’s programmes are, at the same time, deep rooted in traditions and also branching out towards open skies crossing the boundaries of caste, creed, colour and geographic limits. Its projects and programmes concentrate more on youth, women and weaker sections of society.

To seek advice and help in planning and implementation of the above programmes and activities earnestly, Executive/Governing bodies are constituted initially for a period of one year and are may be renewed/ reconstituted on yearly basis. Eminent artists, writers, journalists, other experts and ex-officio officers from Govt. of NCT of Delhi and Govt. of India are incorporated in these bodies/committees. Besides, Experts’ Committees/Panels are constituted from time to time for proper guidance with a view to implement effectively, diverse programmes and activities. Hon’ble Minister for Art & Culture, Govt. of NCT of Delhi is the Chairperson of the Sahitya Kala Parishad and Hon’ble Minister of Education is the Vice-Chairman of the Sahitya Kala Parishad.
