A day after news broke of Penguinwithdrawing Wendy Doniger's book 'The Hindus: An Alternative History', the writer has now come in the defence of its publishers while blaming Indian law."Penguin, India, took this book on knowing that it would stir anger in the Hindutva ranks, and they defended it in the courts for four years, both as a civil and as a criminal suit. They were finally defeated by the true villain of this piece-the Indian law that makes it a criminal rather than civil offenseto publish a book that offends any Hindu, a law that jeopardizes the physical safety of any publisher, nomatter how ludicrous the accusation brought against a book,"she said.
