Literary meet cancels invite to Nayantara Sahgal over threat
Organisers of a Marathi literary meet have withdrawn an invitation extended to writer Nayantara Sahgal after receiving threats to disrupt the function. This is to "avoid any untoward incident and in view of the controversy that has cropped up against her name", organisers said. In 2015, Sahgal had returned her Sahitya Akademi award in protest against alleged intolerance in India.
