Two months after he was forced to skip a literary fest in Jaipur, controversial writer Salman Rushdie tonight attended a function here amid tight security.

Akhilesh Yadav, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister, says his new job is keeping him too busy to travel to Delhi for a leadership conclave he was slated to address this weekend.

After much controversy first over his presence and then his absence at the Jaipur Literature Festival, it's now unclear if the writer will be allowed to participate on the fifth and final day of the event via a video link.

The Salman Rushdie row that has hung heavily over the Jaipur Literature Festival has just got bigger. Two days after he officially cancelled his visit to the Litfest, citing intelligence reports that the Underworld was out to get him, the author this morning slammed the Rajasthan police accusing them of inventing the plot to keep him away from the ...
