The Telegraph  reports that several writers have begun a campaign for the  boycott of  the Jaipur Literature Festival if the Zee Group continues to be its chief sponsor. The paper says that they are "upset with the channel for allegedly airing 'doctored videos' in the JNU case and labelling poet Gauhar Raza a 'traitor' ". Ashok Vajpeyi and  poet K Satchidanandan are reportedly among those who have spoken out.
