India's Supreme Court has ordered the police not to arrest leading academic Ashis Nandy for making controversial remarks at the Jaipur Literature Festival.
The split is evident in Labour's frontbench education team, which is led by the Blairite Stephen Twigg but also contains the more sceptical Lisa Nandy.
The organisers have also handed over to the police a video and a transcript of Prof Nandy's remarks during a panel discussion at the festival on Saturday.
On Friday, the bench headed by Chief Justice Altamas Kabir told Mr Nandy that he must "exercise caution" in the future if the "intention was not to cause hurt to the sentiments of another person or community".
