Taking strong exception to what it said were derogatory comments made on leading politicians in a book titled �Nehru-Gandhi family: secular ya varnshankar�, the Uttar Pradesh government on Tuesday issued an order to recall and seize all its copies.
The state government had taken a strong note of the defamatory comments made on politicians in the book, an official spokesman said.
These comments had the potential to create and vitiate the atmosphere, he said.
The government had, therefore, decided to recall and seize all copies of the book and documents containing its excerpts, the spokesman said.
