flag Kerala High Court orders Union government to respond to challenge over Arundhati Roy book cover showing smoking without health warning.

flag The Kerala High Court has asked the Union government to respond to a public interest litigation challenging the cover of Arundhati Roy's book "Mother Mary Comes to Me," which shows her smoking a bidi without a mandatory health warning. flag The petitioner, advocate Rajasimhan, argues the image violates the Cigarettes and Other Tobacco Products Act by glorifying smoking and may mislead youth, especially young women, into viewing it as fashionable. flag The plea seeks a ban on the book’s sale and distribution until a new cover with a health warning is used. flag The court has scheduled a hearing for September 25.
