Retired bureaucrat Sanjay Dixit has announced that he has terminated his contract with Bloomsbury for the publication of his book ‘Nullifying Article 370 and Enacting CAA’. The decision comes after Bloomsbury India decided to withdraw the publication of a book on Delhi riots following outrage by a left-wing online mob.
Announcement: I have terminated my contract with @BloomsburyIndia for my due to be released book ‘Nullifying Article 370 and Enacting CAA’ (20.09.2020 release), and assigned it to @GarudaPrakashan – please do not place pre-orders on the @BloomsburyBooks title now.

Sanjay Dixit said that his book will now be released by Garuda Prakashan, an international publishing venture focusing on Indic narratives. Garuda Prakashan has confirmed the same on social media and expressed their gratitude towards the author for putting his faith in them.
