Supreme Court says cannot ban Kancha Ilaiah’s book
The Supreme Court on Friday delivered a crucial verdict on the book ‘Samajika Smugglerlu Komatollu’ by Professor Kancha Ilaiah. The court noted that it cannot order to ban the book just because it is controversial.

The bench headed by Chief Justice of India Deepak Mishra said that the court cannot forbid the book. By doing so, they will be curtailing freedom of expression. However, they can only advise the authors to be self-contained.

The Supreme Court today dismissed the petition filed by Arya Vysya Association leader and lawyer Ramanjaneyulu last month to ban the book that allegedly insults their caste.

Author Professor Kancha Ilaiah welcomed the apex court’s decision not to ban the book and noted that Arya Vysya’s should be glad for having a book on their community.

It may be recalled that the book is an extract from Professor’s ‘Post Hindu India’. Arya Vysya’s were angered with the title and the contents as it was discourteous towards their community. Protests continue across the Telugu speaking states against the author.
Jagath sathyam..Brahma Midhya.
