Pan Macmillan India said on Friday it would comply with a Bombay High Court order restraining the publication of Vijaypat Singhania’s book ‘An Incomplete Life’ and would seek legal advice on the remedies available to it.

“On the evening of 4 November 2021, the Bombay High Court restrained Pan Macmillan India from publication, sale and distribution of the book titled An Incomplete Life by Vijaypat Singhania. An intimation and a copy of the High Court’s order have been sent to us and we have taken immediate steps to comply with the order,” the publisher said in a statement.

“We want to clarify that Pan Macmillan India was not party to any proceedings in the Thane district court in 2019 between Raymond and the author’s previous publishers. As such, we were also not made aware of any injunction by the sessions court at Thane regarding any prior version of the book.

“The contents of the manuscript submitted to us were vetted by a legal expert and we believe the book published by us to not be defamatory.

“While we are fully complying with the order of 4 November 2021 passed by the Honourable High Court, we are seeking legal advice as to the remedies available to Pan Macmillan India,” the statement said.

India-Pakistan cricket match: BJP government should clarify its policy: Uddhav Thackeray

Published

on

Mumbai: Mumbai Shiv Sena chief Uddhav Thackeray targeted BJP after the India-Pakistan cricket match and said that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) only pretends to be patriotic and this has now become clear. What would have happened if the cricket match was not played with Pakistan? On one hand, after the terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Pakistan was declared an enemy country and a delegation was sent against it at the international level. Pakistan’s misdeeds were put forward there, but what message will go at the international level if cricket is played with Pakistan. Pakistan carries out terrorist attacks against India and we play matches with it. The stand that the country had made clear against Pakistan after the Pahalgam attack should be maintained, but the BJP wants to sing praises of Amit Shah and Jai Shah. Delegations from across the country say that Pakistan carried out a terrorist attack on India and now a match is being played with it. Is this right? Uddhav Thackeray also raised questions on the foreign policy regarding Pakistan and said that on one hand we call Pakistan a terrorist country and on the other hand we play cricket with it. We narrate the misdeeds of Pakistan during our foreign trips. So what message will go to these countries that on one hand India calls Pakistan a terrorist and on the other hand maintains relations with it. So why would any country support India against Pakistan? Therefore, it is important to decide whether Pakistan is an enemy or a friend. If we end relations with Pakistan, we can convince other countries to do the same. But what message will go when we talk against Pakistan and play cricket with it? That is why I call the Bharatiya Janata Party a fake Janata Party.
