Rushdie feels hurt by rebuffs by India
New Delhi, Sep 17 Salman Rushdie feels ``hurt'' by the ``rebuffs'' given to him by India where his books are rejected for university syllabus on the grounds that he was ``not really'' an Indian writer.
British author Salman Rushdie, who lived in hiding for nine years under a death sentence from Iran's supreme leader, said in an interview published on Thursday that something had gone wrong at the heart of Islam.
