Journalist Posts Pictures Of Katha Book With Hindu Deities On Cover Kept As Toilet Paper, Sparks Row

A woman, purportedly a journalist, named Sushmita Sinha, has caused a row on social media after she posted photographs of a booklet titled ‘Haritalika Teej Vrat Katha’ kept near a commode to be used as toilet paper. She also posted a video calling the book “a raddi kitab (useless book)".

Following the outrage which included many social media users demanding her arrest, Sinha has claimed that only a part of her video is being circulated. She also alleged that she is now getting rape threats.
