Indore (Madhya Pradesh): The issue of the controversial book by Prof. Farhat Khan of Law College Indore turns political. A few politicians have claimed have claimed that the book allegedly hurts religious sentiments. Rajya Sabha MP Vivek Tankha tweeted about the matter and said that he opposes this book under legal principles, but it is also not right that the state government started fulfilling its agendas with the help of the police. He has clearly targeted the government through the tweet.
Whereas, State Water Resources Minister Tulsi Ram Silawat made it clear that the government is doing its work, which it should do, and no culprit will be spared in the matter. As far as Rajya Sabha MP Vivek Tankha is concerned, this could be his thinking.
