Still no Indian visa for book tour: Fatima Bhutto

Fatima Bhutto, the niece of slain former Pakistani premier Benazir Bhutto, who is aggressively promoting her tell-all tome on the Bhutto dynasty, has said she has not been granted a visa to visit India for a book tour.

"Still no Indian visa!" Fatima said in a message posted on her page on the social networking website Twitter.

She followed it up with another tweet saying she "doesn't bite. Can she have her Indian book tour visa now?"

Over the past few weeks, Fatima has been promoting Songs of Blood and Sword, her book on the Bhutto dynasty, which has already been declared a promising read by reviewers across the globe.

 She has also relaunched her website fatimabhutto.com.pk. "My website is finally up. Attack of the fakes is over. This is me," she tweeted. In the recent past, Fatima has been on "warpath" to silence the fake "Fatima Bhuttos" on websites like Twitter and Facebook.
