'This is the status': Ex-army chief MM Naravane reacts to row over memoir; shares publisher's statement

NEW DELHI: Former Indian Army chief Manoj Mukund Naravane, whose unpublished memoir has triggered a major political controversy, on Tuesday backed his publisher Penguin’s statement on the matter. “This is the status of the book,” Naravane wrote on X, sharing a screenshot of Penguin’s statement.

General (retired) Naravane’s reaction came a day after the Delhi Police registered an FIR over the circulation of his unpublished book, "Four Stars of Destiny." An excerpt from the unpublished memoir was sought to be quoted by Lok Sabha leader of opposition and Congress MP Rahul Gandhi in the House on February 2, but he was blocked by the treasury benches, triggering the controversy.(Breaking story)
