India: The Modi Question, a BBC documentary on the 2002 Gujarat riots, isn't the first to stoke controversy in India. Here's a look at five other documentaries that faced government heat in the past.

On Thursday, at least three such screenings were organised – by the Congress in Thiruvananthapuram and the SFI in Kolkata and Hyderabad.

Ned Price, the US State Department spokesperson, in a regular briefing on Wednesday underlined that Washington supports free press around the world and that it is a matter of utmost importance to highlight democratic principles like freedom of expression.

Because of the blackout and the fact that the university refused to grant permission for the screening, groups of students watched the episode on different laptops in the students' union office.
