A man picks out a book from a handcart as books are displayed for sale in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, on August 7, 2025. India bans and orders the seizure of 25 books, claiming they ''glorify terrorism'' and ''incite secessionism'' in Indian Kashmir. The list includes works by well-known Kashmiri, Indian, and international authors. Among the banned titles are Azadi by Arundhati Roy, The Kashmir Dispute 1947-2012 by A.G. Noorani, Kashmir in Conflict by Victoria Schofield, and Independent Kashmir by Christopher Snedden. (Photo by Firdous Nazir/NurPhoto)
