The Congress unit of Kerala on Thursday, Republic Day, is planning to screen the controversial BBC documentary that has been banned by the Centre for being "propaganda".
In Kerala, the documentary is at the centre of row even within the Congress as veteran leader AK Antony's son Anil K Antony recently quit the party alleging "intolerant calls to retract a tweet" in which he had defied the Congress stand and called the BBC documentary a "dangerous precedent".
In response to Anil Antony's argument that it undermines India's sovereignty, senior Congress leader Shashi Tharoor, Lok Sabha member from Thiruvananthapuram, had said his argument is "immature".

The screening comes at a time when the states and universities across the country are facing protest over the screening of 'Modi: The India Question'.
