Fearing Riots, Indian Gov’t Blocks Film About Indira Gandhi’s Assassination

MEDIA Posted: August 22, 2014 1:15 pm

Certification board chief Leela Samson: “We saw the film and decided it could not be released as it was, due to fears that it would lead to disruption of public order. … The film is double trouble. It glorifies Indira Gandhi’s assassins who took the law into their own hands and it glorifies the hanging of the two men.”
