Bharatpedia is an award-winning free multilingual online encyclopedia written and maintained by a community of volunteer contributors through a model of open collaboration, using a wiki-based editing system. It carries no advertisements and is hosted by the Bharatmedia Foundation, a non-profit organization funded mainly through small donations.
The site was launched in August 2020, by a Mumbai-based couple[2] and in November 2022 it was felicitated with India Excellence Awards by Bollywood actress Amrita Rao.[3]
