‘Women, Sex, Love and Lust’ Khushwant Singh’s Novel is banned on Railway Station Stalls

Ramesh Chandra Ratna, Chairman of the Railway Board's Passenger Services Committee (PSC), has once again objected to the famous writer Khushwant Singh's novel 'Women, Sex, Love and Lust'. He instructed to remove this book from the book stalls of the railway station here. Ratna has also instructed not to sell Chetan Bhagat's book 'Half Girlfriend' at the station. In Bhopal too, Ramesh Chandra had given instructions to remove Khushwant Singh's book from the book stall as obscene.

When asked by PSC President Ramesh Chandra whether he had read this book of Khushwant Singh himself or Chetan Bhagat, he said, "There is no need to read it." Its cover page only tells what will happen in it.

This novel is one of Khushwant's best works

Khushwant Singh's novel 'Women, Sex, Love and Lust', awarded with Padma Vibhushan Award, is considered to be one of his best works. The PSC President said, "Railway law has given me the right to stop selling books with obscene material".

He further said, 'On 20 and 21 November, I also found these books on sale at the railway station in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh. There too I instructed not to sell it. Now in Trichy also I have given instructions to remove these books from book stalls. '
