There have been reports in certain quarters of the media recently that the film, "Final Solution", by Shri Rakesh Sharma on the Godhra riots and its aftermath was cleared by the Film Censor Board due to the intervention of the President, Smt. Pratibha Devisingh Patil.

These reports are factually incorrect, as the President has not in any way intervened in the matter
