Mandi House is a locality in Lutyens' Delhi, India. It was the former residence of the Raja of Mandi in Delhi. It was demolished in the 1970s to make way for modern office complexes. By the 1990s, the site had been redeveloped with large institutional and government buildings, including Doordarshan Bhawan and Himachal Bhawan, anchoring a new administrative precinct. Concurrently, the area evolved into Delhi's premier arts district, centered on the National School of Drama, Shri Ram Centre for Performing Arts, and Triveni Kala Sangam, all established between 1950 and the 1960s.
