There's been a recent uproar over an unpublished book by former Army Chief General Manoj Mukund Naravane. Opposition leader Rahul Gandhi, citing a portion of the book in Parliament, has now issued a statement from Penguin, the publisher of the book.
Penguin Random House India (PRHI) stated on Monday that it holds the exclusive publishing rights to former Army Chief General Manoj Mukund Naravane's memoir, "Four Stars of Destiny," and clarified that the book has not yet been published. There are reports that copies are being circulated without permission.
"No copies have been released."
This clarification comes after the Delhi Police filed an FIR regarding the alleged illegal circulation of the manuscript in digital and other formats. In a statement, the publishing house clarified that no copies of the book (whether print or digital) have been released to the public.
The publisher issued a statement, saying, "Penguin Random House India wishes to clarify that we exclusively own the publishing rights to 'Four Stars of Destiny,' the autobiography of former Indian Army Chief General Manoj Mukund Naravane. We would like to clarify that the book has not yet been published."
The statement also stated that no copy of the book (in print or digital form) has been published, distributed, sold, or made available to the public in any way by the company.
Publisher Issues Warning
The publisher also warned that any version of the book currently in circulation, whether in full or in part, and in any format (print, PDF, or online copy), will be considered a copyright infringement.
Case Registered with Delhi Police
According to the Delhi Police, a case has been registered with the Special Cell for a full investigation, which has not yet been approved, and an investigation is underway. Congress leader Rahul Gandhi was seen displaying an alleged copy of the book in Parliament last week. He wanted to read out excerpts from the book in the Lok Sabha from February 2, but was stopped as it had not been published yet.
