We need technology for ending scarcity and meeting the needs of growing number of people. But technologism has set in. It means thinking that "technology first, people next and devil take the hindmost". In the name of Globalization, many nations and many languages are slowly losingtheir existence. Violence has been growing and emotions are dominating one and all. Conflict has become our new idiom. Can the writers awaken the intellect of the people? Can they shame the tiger and encourage the lambs? Can they stress the importance of other nations and their literatures apart from the lone super power and a handful of its allies as hoped by 'Viswakavi' RabindranathTagore? Can we treat all nations as partaking in the orchestra of world peace as desired by Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan?
