India's Ban on 'The Satanic Verses' May End Over Missing Paperwork

Reported 16 days ago

The long-standing ban on Salman Rushdie's 'The Satanic Verses' in India faces uncertainty due to missing documentation. A recent court ruling in New Delhi acknowledged the absence of the original ban notification, leaving the import of the novel technically unprohibited for now. However, it remains unclear if the book will be available in stores, as local bookstore employees reported being unaware of the situation. Rushdie, who has faced significant challenges over the years, including a life-threatening attack in 2022, has yet to comment on this development.
