Amar Chitra Katha PDF is a popular Indian publisher of graphic novels and comics that help children discover their rich cultural heritage. Most of these comics are based on famous religious legends, historical figures, and engaging folktales. Founded in 1967 by Anant Pai, the series has become an important educational tool for young readers.
The Vision Behind Amar Chitra Katha
When Anant Pai started the comic series, he wanted to teach Indian children about their own history and mythology. He was alarmed to see that many students knew a lot about Greek and Roman stories but didn’t know much about their own legendary tales. This observation was sparked by a quiz contest on Doordarshan in February 1967, where participants could easily answer questions about Greek mythology but struggled to respond to “In the Ramayana, who was Rama’s mother?”
