New Delhi, June 1: Controversial Bangladeshi author Taslima Nasreen has said she would return to India by July or August.
I will come to India in July or August. Leaving India permanently means death to me. After coming, I will see whether I would be allowed to enter Kolkata or not," Taslima said.
This was stated by Taslima’s close friend and a writer, Kripashankar Chaubey, in his book Najarband Taslima (Taslima in House Arrest).
The Bangladeshi writer, who is living in Sweden after leaving India, said, "Although I was put in a safe house in Delhi but, was like ‘chamber of death’. I faced physical and mental torture. And such was the problem that I was left with no other option but to leave India."
"I am more of a victim of appeasement politics than of threats from fundamentalists. —PTI
