Congress leaders have accused Penguin Random House India of bowing to government pressure by dropping Sonia Gandhi's upcoming memoir, alleging the publisher demanded the removal of sensitive sections.
The disputed content reportedly included critical observations regarding the Modi government, RSS ideology, and Chinese border incursions, which the publisher allegedly flagged for 'fact-checking'.
The BJP has dismissed the allegations as a political stunt, with party spokesperson Amit Malviya questioning the necessity of the memoir's content and the validity of the censorship claims.
