Top 9 books Banned by indian government


Books banned by indian government



The reputation of having a slight view towards India has always been a matter of discussion. Whether it is with equal rights, social issues or even literature. Books are prohibited in India for all sorts of reasons, ranging from being detrimental to the integrity of the nation to mere displeasure. Freedom to speak is a very difficult line to walk, which is why there is really no reason to ban something for being "garbage".



Some books are banned here in India.


1. The Satanic Verses by Salman Rushdie


Prohibited for allegedly insulting the Prophet.
The fourth novel by Rushdie, a book popularizing the word 'fatwa' in the literary community, is banned in India and a group of other countries. A large section of the Muslim community feels that this is an insult to the legend of Prophet Muhammad.



2. The Hindus: An Alternative History by Wendy Doniger


Banned to depict Indian gods in a polite manner.
In this 683-page book, a situation of confrontation between the Education Bachao Andolan Samiti and uncle and aunts was observed in India. Although well researched, many similes related to Indian deities in this book describe the word Go to Doom Dhai


3. Understanding Islam through Hadis by Ram Swarup

Banned being strict towards Islam
Another book that faced the wrath of the Muslim community. This Ram Swaroop statement dealt with the issues of political Islam, only provoking the public and banning itself and it was arrested by the publisher.



4. The Ramayana as told by Aubrey Menen

Banned satire on Ramayana.
Aubrey's reputation as a satirist could not help ban his lighthearted and jovial version of the Indian mythological epic. Orthodox Hindus are not known for their prudence, and in 1956 the book was banned.



5. Jinnah: India-Partition-Independence by Jaswant Singh

Banned being sympathetic to Jinnah.
The book was restricted to portraying Jinnah in a purposeful way rather than as a painted nation breaker. It criticized the policies of Nehru and Sardar Patel, as we all know whether anyone will get an ax, facts or not.



6. The Price of Power by Seymour Hersh

Morarji was the banned CIA informer for Desai's suggestion.
Morarji Desai, the Indian Prime Minister and famous urine drinker, was accused in this book of supplying secrets to the CIA. He ran a case against this "insanity", and banned the book in India.



7. Lajja by Taslima Nasreen

Banned for hurting Muslim sentiments.
Another member of the Fatwa clan, this Bangladeshi writer's book based on the demolition of the Babri Masjid in 1993, was banned in India. It is said to be abusive to Muslims and degrading to Islam.



8. An Area of Darkness by V.S. Naipaul

Restrictions were imposed for the portrayal of India in an objective manner.
The story was almost immediately banned by the controversial writer about his journey through India in the 60s. The reason for the direct social reflection and focus on India's difficulties is believed to be that it was banned, as most are accustomed to higher-ups.



9. The Heart of India by Alexander Campbell

Banned being "repulsive".
This book cannot be imported into India. Published in 1958, it was about India's economic policies and politics. It was banned for being "repulsive".
