Abstract

I recall vividly the first time I visited the Central Institute of Psychiatry, Ranchi, formerly it was part of Bihar now it is the capital of the state of Jharkhand. The Department, therefore, has to play a lead role, like others, in the field of mental health and social work. Diversity of population of the new state provides a rich context which is indeed challenging. Science and tradition, therefore, have to meet and work together to achieve the goal of enhancing mental health. Field demonstration and social and institutional networking may facilitate new programmes, consolidate earlier ones, and also change policies and streamline programmes of mental health by securing citizen participation.
