Sanjay Raut says his book on prison experiences has chapter on ex-VP Dhankhar
Mumbai (PTI): The English translation of his book about experiences in prison has a chapter on the sudden resignation of former vice president Jagdeep Dhankhar, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Sanjay Raut said on Saturday.
Dhankhar, a former BJP leader, resigned as vice president citing health reasons in July 2025, taking the country by surprise.
Raut was arrested by the Enforcement Directorate in 2022 in an alleged money laundering case. After his release on bail, he wrote a book in Marathi on his experiences in Mumbai's Arthur Road jail, titled "Narkatla Swarg" (Heaven in Hell), which was published last year.
"The revised (English) edition has a chapter on Dhankhar. There are five-six more examples (of those arrested by central agencies)," Raut told PTI without providing more details.
The English version "Unlikely Paradise" will be released in New Delhi on March 23.
The book will be released by Rajya Sabha MPs Kapil Sibal, Sanjay Singh, Derek O'Brien and Jaya Bachchan. Former Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal will launch the book.
