Description of Incident: Husain first received much criticism after the "Bharatmata" became known to the public. Husain decided to withdraw the painting from the auction where the painting was up for sale and he made a public apology. Despite his apology, he is now facing censorship from the Government of India. Indian bureaucrats are refusing to allow the "Bharatmata" to be publicly displayed because they fear public outroar if the painting is exhibited.

Results of Incident: If the "Bharatmata" is displayed, Husain can face arrest.
