Digital Desk: Natwar Singh, a former minister and ambassador, claimed on
Saturday that he participated in the decision to forbid The Satanic Verses by
Salman Rushdie in India in 1988. He had advised banning the book because it
might disrupt law and order to Rajiv Gandhi, who was prime minister at the
time. Natwar Singh said the controversial British-American author had been
stabbed in New York at an open event by a 24-year-old guy, thus the decision
made solely for law and order concerns was appropriate.
Natwar Singh expressed his anguish over the attack while the
attack on the writer in the US unnerved world leaders and artists. He remarked,
"Here is a 75-year-old man who isn't hurting anyone and is making literary
contributions, and then some scoundrel comes along and almost kills him, and
that too while he was giving a speech in New York.
