Bhatkhande Sanskriti Vishwavidyalaya In Lucknow To Move Forward Under CM Yogis Vision, Indian Culture To Get

Lucknow, July 6: Under the vision of Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, the new campus of Bhatkhande Sanskriti Vishwavidyalaya is set to become a historic initiative towards giving Indian culture, music, folk traditions, and performing arts global recognition. The proposed world-class campus at Kakorabad in the state capital, Lucknow, is being planned not merely as a music university but as a comprehensive centre of Indian culture.

With this objective, a high-level advisory committee meeting chaired by Additional Chief Secretary, Culture, Tourism and Religious Affairs Department, Amrit Abhijat, was held on Monday, where eminent artists, academicians, and experts from across the country deliberated in detail on the blueprint of the campus.

During the meeting, special emphasis was laid on ensuring that the new campus becomes the country's largest centre of India's cultural heritage, Indian knowledge tradition, and performing arts for the coming hundreds of years.

Integrated cultural education visionDuring the meeting, experts said that there is currently no such institution in the country that brings together India's thousands of years old cultural heritage on a single platform, where integrated study and research can be undertaken in classical music, dance, theatre, folk and tribal arts, visual and fine arts, literature, philosophy, yoga, spirituality, the Indian Knowledge System, and modern art education. Keeping this vision in mind, a proposal was presented to develop the new campus of Bhatkhande Sanskriti Vishwavidyalaya as the country's first comprehensive "Sanskriti Vishwavidyalaya."
