Demanding action against authors for reading from Salman Rushdie’s banned book ‘The Satanic Verse’ at a literary festival here, Muslim groups today filed two separate complaints in courts in Rajasthan.
The complaints were filed in the court of Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate in Jaipur and before Additional Chief Judicial Magistrate in Ajmer seeking direction to police to lodge FIRs and probe the matter.
They alleged that the authors acted in an illegal manner by reading excerpts from the book at a session during the Jaipur literary festival.
