Raman Mohan writes in The Tribune:Rajbir Deswal, DIG (CID), Haryana, said here today that all art forms projected only the positive and creative side of society as well as the artist and there was nothing that could be termed as negativity in art.
He was speaking as the chief guest at a function held here to mark the release of a collection of poems by Sucheta Saraf, a local social activist and poetess. The book is entitled “Kucch Kehane Do.”
Deswal, who is widely known as “writer cop” in literary circles, said every artistic activity was meant only for the betterment of society at large. A poet expressed his or her feelings through imaginative use of words. Likewise, painters do so through creative use of colours and brush strokes. In the end all forms of art only added to society’s creative side.
He said he had never encountered any negativity in art, as he believed that artistic expression was born out of a person’s creative side and creativity could by no stretch of imagination be negative.
Deswal said budding poetess Saraf’s latest collection was a fine example of modern Hindi poetry. Balbir Singh, Commissioner, Income Tax, and RS Jaglan, registrar, Guru Jambheshwar University of Science and Technology, were among those present.http://www.tribuneindia.com/2009/20090126/haryana.htm#8
