New Delhi: The CPI-M on Monday appeared unimpressed with Bangladeshi author Taslima Nasreen's decision to withdraw controversial pages from her autobiography, saying there were 'many other books' too.
In reply to a question on the party's view on Nasreen's step, Left Front chairman in West Bengal Biman Bose said, "It is for the people to decide, but she has written not just one book. There are many books."
Bose, who was in news recently for airing his views for Nasreen against her stay in West Bengal after demonstrations by Muslim outfits, declined to comment anything further on the issue.
Nasreen had on Friday issued a statement saying that she was withdrawing three controversial pages from her autobiographical novel Dwikhandito as they had evoked strong protests from 'a section of people in India'.
Her other autobiographical works are Amar Meyebela (My girlhood), Utal Hawa (Gusty wind), Dwikhandito and Sei Sob Andhakar (Those dark days), Ami Bhalo Nei, Tumi Bhalo Theko Desh (I am not well, you remain well my country).
