Hotel Ramada · Bistupur, Jamshedpur

Vision

We receive so much from our city and our state, yet in the busyness of life, we often forget to give back. Vidhyadeep Foundation is committed to preserving Jharkhand’s cultural, mythological and tribal heritage, promoting cultural tourism, and enabling tribal artists to become self-reliant by offering them not just participation in fairs, but dignified and sustainable livelihood opportunities. Jamshedpur Literature Festival provides an inclusive and thought-provoking national platform for dialogue on these concerns, with a vision to foster meaningful intellectual and cultural exchange between Jharkhand and the rest of the country.

Objective

To highlight the role of literature, journalism and artists in preserving cultural roots, heritage and social responsibility. To create interest among leading hotel groups and corporate institutions in Jharkhand’s arts, handicrafts, textiles, and traditional crafts, so that local artists move beyond fair-based stalls and become regular suppliers of curated corporate gifts and cultural products. To promote concrete and impactful CSR initiatives focused on safeguarding Jharkhand’s diverse cultural heritage.

Values

Giving voice to ideas through literature, art and the written word; upholding social responsibility, staying rooted in our heritage and opening new avenues of opportunity, especially for rural and tribal communities.
