Thiruvananthapuram - After Leela Samson and fellow member
Ira Bhaskar, eminent filmmaker Shaji N Karun has resigned
as member of the Central Board of Film Certification
(CBFC) pledging solidarity with them and expressing
"gross dissatisfaction" at the functioning of the body.
Karun, who mailed his resignation to Samson last
evening, said he was quitting not just over the issue of
clearance to the controversial film "Messenger of God"
but mainly because of the "constitutional and
organisational" failure of the CBFC for some time.
