The Nepalese government has banned a social studies textbook after complaints from Muslim groups.  The book has been criticised for including factual inaccuracies and an “erroneous interpretation” of Islam:  one particular illustration is alleged to portray a feminised image of the prophet Mohammed. This marks the first time religious outcry has caused the banning of a book in Nepal, where Hinduism was removed from its position at the state religion in 2006.
