The C.P. Brown Academy was established in Hyderabad in 2007. Having been established to promote resurgence of Telugu language and culture, the Academy is most appropriately named after the renowned Indologist C.P. Brown (1798-1884) as a tribute to his legendary contribution towards preservation and promotion of Telugu language and literature. An advisory council with eminent litterateurs has been constituted to help the academy in chalking out its programs.
