It is such a shame for India for ban Rushdie in such a way. He is such a powerful writer. No country should have the right to ban someone's thought process and independence of thinking. Jaipur festival is for solidarity but banning writers and sending them off is a shame.
Yes indeed it is a shame how the Indian government is not willing to listen to Rushdie. Many people who have read the novel feel there is no content offensive to religious sentiments in it. If only Rushdie could clarify this to people who have not even read the entire book.
Hi, thanks for your sweetness and consideration to comment on my post. However, I have disabled anonymous comment for obvious reasons. Leave a honest comment and we can discuss it, toss it back and forth like a ball across a tennis court!
