Arrogance of intellectual club oppressive, says Shekhar Kapur

“If you see nearly 40 per cent of Indians… don’t have a say… they are oppressed by caste, community, lack of food or homes — there voices should come in the talk of intolerance. The problem is that intellectuals become the voice of society… and that’s .0000001 per cent of society. Now there is a tendency among intellectuals to become a club and the arrogance of that club becomes oppressive. Arrogance of the intelligentsia or the so-called intellectuals is a burden upon society sometimes,” he said.
