A follow-up on a previous post (thanks Geeta Amma):
The Supreme Court has given a clean chit to an American scholar being prosecuted by the Maharashtra Police for allegedly promoting animosity between communities through his book on the legendary Maratha warrior Shivaji.
A three-Judge Bench headed by Chief Justice KG Balakrishnan restrained the state police from proceeding further against Professor James W Laine, the author of “Shivaji: Hindu King in Islamic India”, which, on its release by publisher Oxford University Press of India in 2003, had led to an agitation by the Shambhaji Brigade in Pune.
An FIR was then lodged against Prof Laine, a teacher of religious studies, Macalester College, USA, and the book was withdrawn from circulation.
The Bench while reversing a Bombay High Court order on the issue observed, “Prof. James W. Laine, the author of the book has exercised his reason and his own analytical skills before choosing any literature which he intends to include in his book. It is very improbable to imagine that any serious and intense scholar will attempt to malign the image of this glorious Institute” (Hindustan Times).
Do you want an assistant professorship at Hamdard? I need a research assistant at my fake job.
You would read Indian English fiction, looking for references to mangoes, pepper, and any other curryesque references and delete them.
We are then going to publish the resulting redacted texts as a magnum opus of self-induced censorship.
I need a job. Please hire me.

In an interview published in party mouthpiece Samna, Thackeray lashed out at the Maharashtra government for failing to defend the ban imposed on Shivaji - The Hindu King in Muslim India.
''If this book comes out in the market, burn it wherever you find it. This is my order,'' Thackeray was quoted as saying by the paper.
The high court decision lifting the ban on the book had ''crushed Maharashtrian pride and particularly of all Shiv Sena'', he claimed.
It's great there are people like Anand Patwardhan and his mates in Maharashtra! Thank you, Anand, thank you Kunda and Sanghraj!
