Professor Mridula Mukherjee, historian and former director of the Nehru Memorial Museum and Library, Purushottam Agrawal, distinguished writer, literary critic, historian of ideas and public intellectual and Dr Shilpi Tiwari, a senior surgeon, join the well-known senior advocate in the Supreme Court, Kapil Sibal, for a discussion on whether Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) is telling the whole truth when it calls itself a cultural organisation – and whether that self-description includes or excludes politics. The remarkable feature of the interaction is the presence of a guest who has spent over three decades within the Sangh Parivar, who interactions over the course of this conversation with leading figures who have watched it from the outside.
