FOUNDER OF AWIC

 
     
  Who has not heard of Shankar? To the common man, Shankar is the synonym of laughter, made possible through his cartoons and the journal 'Shankar's Weekly'. To children the world over, Shankar's name is familiar through the international competition for writing and painting organized for them for over half a century. To the world of books, his name is familiar as one who pioneered children's literature in India through the Children's Book Trust (CBT).

Shankar's son Ravi Shankar is now AWIC's patron and as always, supports AWIC by providing office space and facilities within the CBT premises.
