The Department of Psychiatry at NIMHANS, Bangalore, is a very

big department, in terms of bed strength and manpower. It is fulfi lling

its role in various aspects such as manpower development, patient

care and research. The senior experienced faculty are in various

national and international committees and law making bodies. The

young faculty are also rapidly becoming wise and noticeable. One

notable thing is the way they keep reinventing themselves. The

department is in general friendly and has a benevolent big brother

attitude towards other clinical departments. They have a live and

let live attitude. I wish them continued growth and contentment.

My association with the Department of Psychiatry, NIMHANS, spans the last three

decades. It has gone through different phases – to begin with as a resident, sharing

overlapping grounds of training in neurology and psychiatry and

liaising clinically with the psychiatric trainees, and now as a faculty,

collaborating on clinical, training, research and administrative

areas. However, the ‘camaraderie’ has not changed and has

strengthened over time.

Exemplary training of the department in mental health ensures

skill-building, ground for ethical practice, a trend of striving for

excellence in trainees. It was the mental hospital in 1936 and later

setting up of the Department of Psychiatry in the year 1953 that

were the impetus for the development of many other departments in the institute and

setting up of NIMHANS in the seventies. The contribution of the department of the

psychiatry to the care of our patients and training of our residents can only be felt and

not be expressed in words. We owe a lot to the department which deserves accolades

on this occasion of celebrating 60 years.
