But unfortunately the feudal culture is not confined to the villages alone. Ravi soon realises that it has spread to the cities and even to the university campus. Although most of the students do not happen to belong to the land owning class, they have unconsciously imbibed the feudal value system.
The novel has been written in the stream of consciousness mode primarily to depict the inner struggle of Ravi who continuously finds himself the focal point of disparate forces acting relentlessly upon him. People who seek truth have no place in the university. It is more of a training ground for the selfishness of people through intimidation and inducements. One has to sacrifice one’s self-respect to fit into the system. Otherwise, one has to struggle and join ranks of the people who suffer.
People like Ranga Reddy and Srisailam who want to lord it over the fellow students are the representatives of the feudal value system on the university campus. Although Sagar hails from feudal background, Ramesh is focused on his own career and Nidhi has many contradictions, they join forces against the former two. They recognize Venu, who shows a surprising revolutionary fervour, as their leader. Ravi’s war of nerves with Ranga Reddy and Srisailam ends with his moving closer to Venu in ideological terms.
