Culture is not a narrow process but a wide ranging character. The culture was not something tied to a period but it always gets enriched by the world around and develops itself. Culture is never tied to religion also but beyond religion. However, it should not be allowed by the society to nurture negative overtures. Any culture can sustain itself only if remains tolerant and enjoys the diversity. It must respect the thought process of others. The politics and culture do affect each other. When politics is motivated by negativities, that affects the culture negatively. Conversely, if the culture does not remain strong enough to influence the politics, the politics becomes weak. Narrow politics and narrow culture, both are dangerous for the country and society. Literature and Culture are not bound by individuals, castes, religions. They are bound by our narrow mind. Let us allow our minds to open up, be understanding, tolerant, respecting, and grow positively. It is necessary to be strong, but it is not neccessary to kill someone to establish the strength.
