We now see how a book is banned even before release. A certain British gentleman seems responsible for this.

This is not new.

It happened before in 1907.

An Indian wrote a history book.
Brits banned it even before it released.

That Indian? Veer Savarkar.

#bloomsburyindia
It's funny to me because I'm writing the chapters about how Savarkar tried to get his book published but found it impossible as the British empire threatened and scared every publisher.

The modus operandi hasn't changed in 113 years. #bloomsburyindia
Savarkar wrote a book about the history of the 1857 revolt, and was the first one to call it the First War Of Indian Independence, as opposed to Sepoy Mutiny.

Obviously the British didn't like that. #bloomsburyindia

This is from the book, #DelhiRiotsTheUntoldStory

However, the fact of the matter is : @sioindia was founded in 1982 and SIMI was banned in 2001!

Another gem from the book, '#DelhiRiots 2020: The Untold Story'. Of course, without any reference or citation !
To substantiate this 'fact', the authors have given reference of an article in gktoday.in!
