Taslima Nasrin[a] (born 25 August 1962) is a Bangladeshi writer, physician, feminist, secular humanist, and activist. She is known for her writing on women's oppression and criticism of religion; some of her books are banned in Bangladesh.[2][3][4] She has also been blacklisted and banished from the Bengal region, both from Bangladesh and the Indian state of West Bengal.[5][6]
She gained global attention by the beginning of 1990s owing to her essays and novels with feminist views and criticism of what she characterizes as all "misogynistic" religions.[7][8] Nasrin has been living in exile since 1994, with multiple fatwas calling for her death.[9] After living more than a decade in Europe and the United States, she moved to India in 2004 and has been staying there on a resident permit long-term, multiple-entry or 'X' visa since.[10][11] She now lives in New Delhi, India.[12]
