The establishment of the 'Shabdalok' museum is a landmark initiative by the Union Ministry of Culture to preserve and promote India's rich linguistic and literary heritage. It serves as a tribute to the diversity of Indian languages and their evolution from ancient oral traditions to contemporary digital formats. By utilizing interactive and technology-driven exhibits, the museum aims to transform the academic concept of linguistics into an engaging experience for the public. This project is housed within the National Library in Kolkata, which acts as the custodian of India's printed heritage.
