Jaipur Police on Tuesday issued a notice to sociologist Ashis Nandy asking him to appear before it in connection with his controversial remarks against SC and STs at the Jaipur Literature Festival.
Jaipur Literature Festival producer Sanjoy Roy is also likely to be questioned by police on Tuesday. ‘We served summons to the organiser but he was busy with the event so he could not turn up yesterday but has been called today for further investigation,’ a police officer said.
‘We will also record the statement of the complainant Rajpal Meena,’ he said. The officer said notice has been issued to Nandy and police would record his statement. Additional Commissioner of Police Biju George Joseph had said on Monday that the organisers were asked to remain in the city.
