Manusmriti Row

Amid a row over the proposal to teach Manusmriti to law students of Delhi University, Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan today said "there is no question of including any controversial portion of any script in the curriculum".

NCP (Sharadchandra Pawar) leader Jitendra Awhad apologised today for tearing posters denouncing the Manusmriti that also had a picture of Dr BR Ambedkar.

Actor-turned-politician Khushbu Sundar, who joined the BJP earlier this month, was detained by the police in Tamil Nadu's Chengalpattu district today while she was on her way to lead a protest against a politician for his remarks on ancient Hindu text Manusmriti.

New posters have come up on the JNU campus that describe Holi as an "anti-women" festival as "historically it has sexually abused Dalit women in the name of celebrations".
