debating on a religious book is altogether different from banning it and that too without any debate. In this context there should not be resistence from any group that the book/religious prescriptions can not be debated. Many Hindus do not agree with many many things regarding 'karam Kand" etc. prescribed in Hindu religion. There is no out cry. It is a matter of personal belief.

If India can resist voluntary change to christianity, construct Hindu temples world wide, then Russia has full right to ban bg.

India is resisting involuntary conversion. After the ban Hindus will not be able to keep a copy for their reference. That is curtailing religious rights. Please try to understand the difference between chalk and cheese
Religion is a way of life and Bhagawat Gita is the prime book in the world which shows what is life, how to behave in community. First chapter only states what caused Sri. Krishna to tell in detail about the secrets of life. Next 17 chapters one should read and understand and try to mould life to attain the ultimate Truth.
