It has been over two months since the intellectuals of the country took it upon themselves to protest against the rising 'intolerance' in the country. More than 50 writers, filmmakers, scientists and scholars have returned their awards and signed petitions against rising polarisation and attacks on free speech. As the battle over intolerance and tolerance rages, let's move beyond to how art, writing, culture is setting a new agenda for better or worse. Joining me, best-selling author of 'The Shiva Trilogy', Amish Tripathi; Columnist & Author Nilanjana S Roy; Vani Tripathi Tikoo, Censor Board Member; Raghu Karnad, Author, 'Farthest Field: An Indian Story of the 2nd World War'; and filmmaker & artist Anish Ahluwalia.
