Tamil Nadu suspends screening of The Da Vinci Code
Special Correspondent
CHENNAI:
The Tamil Nadu Government has asked District Collectors and the Chennai Police Commissioner to suspend the screening of The Da Vinci Code.
"The Government has taken cognizance of the various reports and complaints received from the minority communities, particularly Christian community regarding the proposed screening of the movie," the Principal Secretary, Home, said in a press release.
The screening of the movie might hurt the religious feelings and sentiments of the Christian community and lead to demonstrations and disturb peace and tranquillity within the State, the release added.
The Collectors and the Commissioner have been asked to study the situation closely and to take action under Section 13 of the Cinematograph Act, 1952 (Central Act 37 of 1952) for suspending the screening of the movie.
