Delhi Police has initiated an investigation into the unauthorized circulation of an unpublished book by former Army Chief General (Retd.) M.M. Naravane, titled 'Four Stars of Destiny'. An FIR was registered following reports that pre-print copies of the book were being circulated on various social media platforms. Officials confirmed that the necessary permissions for publishing the book had not yet been obtained from the relevant authorities.

According to the official statement released by the police, it was discovered that a typeset PDF version of the book was available on certain websites, purportedly prepared by 'Penguin Random House India Private Limited'. Additionally, some e-commerce platforms displayed the final cover of the book as if it was available for purchase. This revelation raises questions about security protocols surrounding unpublished works and the integrity of the publishing process.

The situation also reflects broader concerns regarding intellectual property rights and the potential distribution of sensitive materials without proper authorization. As Delhi Police investigates the source of the leaks, the inquiry could potentially shed light on larger issues within the publishing industry and emphasize the need for stricter regulatory measures to protect unpublished works from unauthorized distribution.
