Storm In Lok Sabha Over Russian Court’s Move To Ban Bhagvad Gita

The move to ban Bhagwad Gita by a Siberian court led to a storm in the Lok Sabha today, with several members denouncing it and demanding that the government take it up strongly with Russia. “We will not tolerate any move to insult Lord Krishna,“ chanted RJD chief Lalu Prasad, who was supported by several members, angry over reports that a court in Tomsk was due to pronounce its verdict in a case calling for a ban on the Bhagwad Gita.
