Legalize India porn
Vijay Anand, the head of India's film certification board and himself a major film producer, has proposed legalizing exhibition of hardcore pornography. Clandestine XXX cinemas are common in many Indian cities. Anand says, "Porn is shown everywhere in India clandestinely ... and the best way to fight this onslaught of blue movies is to show them openly in theatres with legally authorised licences. There is a demand for such movies in India and we as censors cannot always keep a tap on pornography. By setting up such theatres we would offer an outlet to people who want to see such movies."
