Dharwad Institute of Mental Health And Neurosciences (DIMHANS)-Dharwad

Institute was started as “Lunatic asylum” in 1845 by the British Government in the premises attached to the jail midst of the lush green vegetated 18 acres of land for keeping mentally ill who were discriminated against and stigmatized by restraining using chains and secluded from society and family members. Later in 1885, some rooms of the jail were used as wards for keeping patients. On 25 Sept 1908 Superintendent Engineer of Southern India wrote a letter to the superintendent of Bombay province to provide a place to establish mental asylum at Dharwad along with   Yerawad (Pune), Colaba, Ratnagiri, and Thana. Considering the cold climatic conditions of the region, the asylum was established in Dharwad during this period. From records available Collector’s office, Police Superintendent’s office, jail, and asylum were within a 1.5 km radius. In the year 1909, the asylum was separated from the jail and a wall around the asylum was constructed. The scientific basis of treatment using few available medications and psychological interventions was introduced. In the year 1922, British Government declared asylum as a “Government Mental Hospital”. Thus, this hospital is the second oldest hospital in south India.
