Delhi hasn't always enjoyed the status of the India's capital, but it has always
played a pivotal role in the history of India as a gateway city. The same way, it
received mental health services much later than the rest part of country, but it
has witnessed an evolution from colonial era to the birth of state of art modern
psychiatry services. Journey started with the landmark inaugural meeting in Delhi
University of few visionaries paving the birth of Indian psychiatry society.
Subsequently, it witnessed emergence of general hospital psychiatry units & saw
their transformation to apex institutes of teaching and research like AIIMS and
others. It saw an exemplary worth replicating transformation of hospital for
mental diseases into the state of art neuropsychiatry center, IHBAS. Delhi of
today represents a microcosm of psychiatry institutes offering entire range of
therapeutic, rehabilitative and academic services with equally important share in
policy making at national level. This article traces the trends and developments
that happened in mental health services in last six decades.
