Nevada (US), Sept 21: Indo-Americans have commended lifting the ban on legendary filmmaker Academy Award receiver Satyajit Ray’s documentary on Sikkim.

Welcoming the lifting of ban, eminent Indo-American statesman Rajan Zed, in a statement in Nevada (USA) today, said that it should never have been banned at the first place as ban was against the intellectual expression and freedom of speech and democratic values of India.

Rajan Zed, who is Chairperson of Indo-American Leadership Confederation, further said that they were glad that world would now be able to look at the Ray’s unseen work, the greatest filmmaker India ever produced who gave us films like Pather Panchali and Aparjito. (ANI)
