  "summary": "The Patna High Court has issued a notice to the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting and the National Film Development Corporation (NFDC) over the selection of Kishore Kumar's biography as the Best Book on Indian Cinema at the 70th National Film Awards. Petitioner Anant Prasad Sinha, a Hindi writer and literary critic, has challenged the award, arguing that the award committee violated the rules that stipulate the honour should go to the best book on Indian cinema published in any language in India. Sinha contends that his own book, 'Do Gulfamo Ki Teesri Kasam', should have received the award instead. The matter will be heard again on October 8.",
