You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 44.214.0.0/16 has been blocked by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 16:45, 10 January 2025. Your current IP address is 44.214.4.121.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

[[File:ICHR LOGO.jpg|thumb|ICHR NEW LOGO]]

The '''Indian Council of Historical Research''' ('''ICHR''') is a captive body of the [[Ministry of Education (India)|Ministry of Education]], [[Government of India]] established by an Administrative Order. The body has provided financial assistance to historians and scholars through fellowships, grants, and symposia.

The ICHR receives grants-in-aid from the [[Department of Higher Education (India)|Department of Higher Education]], grants-in-aid from various Indian states, private donations, and the proceeds of revenues from the sale of publications of the ICHR. The ICHR is based in [[Delhi]], with regional centres in [[Pune]] ([[Maharashtra]]), [[Bengaluru]] ([[Karnataka]]), and [[Guwahati]] ([[Assam]]).

It was established on 27 March 1972.

Its first chairman was the historian [[Ram Sharan Sharma]].<ref>((cite web| title = The man who made history | url = https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/patna/The-man-who-made-history/articleshow/9689398.cms |date=22 August 2011| access-date = 2020-09-19| work = The Times of India))</ref> Historians who have served as members or functionaries of the ICHR include [[Irfan Habib]], [[Tapan Raychaudhuri]], and [[Barun De]].

==Objectives==
The objectives of the ICHR, as enunciated in the initial pamphlet published by the Department of Education, Government of India in 1972,((full citation needed|date=January 2018)) are as under:

* to bring historians together and provide a forum for the exchange of views between them;
* to give a national direction to objective and scientific writing of history and to have rational presentation and interpretation of history;
* to promote, accelerate and coordinate research in history with special emphasis on areas that have not received adequate attention so far;
* to promote and coordinate a balanced distribution of research effort over different areas; and
* to elicit support and recognition for historical research from all concerned and ensure the necessary dissemination and use of results.

==Funding, expenses and salaries==
((unreferenced section|date=March 2015))

ICHR is funded by grants-in-aid received from the Department of Higher Education, Ministry of Education . It also receives funds from the various state governments of India and from other Ministries of the government of India.

==Organization==
The ICHR is headed by an Honorary Chairman. The Member Secretary functions as the Secretary of the Governing Council during its General Body and special meetings and as the day-to-day Head of the Department in ICHR.

The Members of the Council of ICHR (Governing Body) are nominated for a period of three years. The Chairman of the Council of ICHR is nominated by the Department of Education in an honorary capacity and his term is not co-terminus with that of the members of the Constituted Council. The day-to-day functioning of the ICHR is looked after by the Director who acts as '' ex officio'' Member Secretary of the Council. In 1991, a trend was started to have a separate post of Member Secretary of the ICHR, with Professor [[M. G. S. Narayanan|MGS Narayanan]] being selected as the First Member Secretary of ICHR. The institution has been continually embroiled in intra-rivalries between the Chairmen, Member Secretaries, and the Directors, at the cost of historical research. The main reason, as per many, has been the deputing of persons from here and there as the Member Secretaries and the undermining the office of the Chairman and the Director of the institution.
