Bhisma Sahni, great writer, theatre personality, social worker, shares some reminiscences with Dr. Kapila Vatsyayan. The beginning of the twentieth century was marked by the national movement for freedom, along with reform movements. There were more revolutions led by people like Bhagat Singh. His hanging gave a fillip to the patriotism. It was not a question of whether violence was right or wrong. Sahni feels that our attention is diverted today from socio-cultural problems, while the earlier ideology had a meaning and there was faith connected with a goal - an objective. Today, at individual level there are commitments, but the social level is overpowered by materialism. Our cultural legacy - sanskṛti is no longer valued, but Sahni believes that our country will find a way to move forward.
