Court restricts sale of Rangayana director’s book ‘Tipu Nija Kanasugalu’
Bengaluru: As per the order of the court, issued on Monday, the sale of the book written by Addanda Cariappa, the director of Rangayana, about the life of Tipu Sultan, titled ‘Tipu Nija Kanasugalu’ has reportedly been temporarily restricted.
During the hearing of the petition submitted by B S Rafiullah concerning the case, the 14th Additional Civil and Sessions Court in the city is learned to have issued an order of objection placing temporary restrictions on the sale of the book, both in shops and social media until the next hearing.
The advocate representing the petitioner has argued that the book contains blatant false information with certain sections of the author’s writings having absolutely no substantial proof or reference.
“The author has entirely missed the mark on the sources of his reference and has not provided a single academic evidence to back the written claims in the book. Further, the book depicts the Azan in an insulting manner, while the author uses the derogatory word ‘Turkaru’ in it,” the lawyer argued.
If this book were to be released to the public, it may lead to disruption of peace. In this regard, the book must be withheld through an order of injunction, the advocate appealed.
A notice was issued to the author and the publisher of the book, before deferring the hearing.
