The exhibition at Delhi was visited by thousands of people including well known artists, art –critics, art-connoisseurs, journalists and the common people. A great deal of enthusiasm was seen among the visitors about the new type of works of art which spurred their imagination, emotion and feelings. Some of them very plainly said that this was the first exhibition during the last thirty years of contemporary paintings which they had no difficulty to understand and relish. What more could the Samikshavadi painters expect? These painters are against ambiguity which has been so common in the current westernized modern art in India. The artists believe in a simplified language of art to be able to express themselves powerfully, directly and clearly.

They believe in an art which has a social purpose, and this is only possible if the language is simple intelligent yet forceful. Art without social purpose dies soon. Present day life for the majority of people in India hovers between insecurity and immortality. People are gradually becoming helpless and disgusted. Those in power are generally blind to the plight of the people. They have their own axe to grind. They also feel insecure. Power politics itself has become a perilous game. The poor are becoming poorer and the rich richer.
