Maithili Academy is an autonomous organisation of the Government of Bihar dedicated to the promotion of the Maithili language, its literature and culture,[3] founded in 1976 at the urging of chief minister Jagannath Mishra.[4] Its first chairman was Srikant Thakur Vidyalankar.[2]
The academy publishes books in Maithili along with a fortnightly magazine.[5] Its publication Uccatara Maithilī Vyãkaraṇa (Higher Maithili grammar) by G. Jha has been described as "the most noteworthy contribution to the field of Maithili linguistics."[6]
