A session on Aaabhas Maldahiyar's book 'Babur: The Quest for Hindustan' was cancelled at the Bhopal Literature and Art Festival following threats from some groups alleging the book glorifies Babur. Maldahiyar denied these claims, stating the book documents Babur's violent rule. The cancellation followed a newspaper article questioning the book's relevance, which the author said was published without reading the book. Organizers replaced the session amid police concerns over potential unrest.
