22 Aug 2020: Bloomsbury India, the book publishing company  has decided to withdraw  the book ‘Delhi Riots 2020: The Untold Story’  authored by Monika Arora, Sonali Chitalkar and Prerna Malhotra. The book was to be released on Aug 22nd 2020. In a statement, the publication house cited a ‘virtual pre-publication launch organised without our knowledge by the authors’ as one of the reasons for its decision. The initial plan was to release the book, which documents investigations, interviews conducted by the authors. It is said that Bloomsbury has budged to the political pressure of Congress, ideological pressure from the Communists and Islamist pressure too. Journalists, Intellectuals and free speech advocates reportedly have brought in pressure to which Bloomsbury has succumbed to.

Publisher @BloomsburyIndia is releasing a book which seeks to blame minorities for the Delhi Pogrom.
