This was a departure from the usual. Reeling under the impact of the pandemic which has completely put a stop to many usual activities, here the panellist struck a different chord. There was a need to tackle the despondency in society and the governments could not be the sole protector of people’s lives. People had to engage with each other to infuse a sense of mental and physical security among all till we can return to normalcy.

More of a freewheeling chatter, the subject brought out the best in human attitude and endeavour to stand together in difficult times.
