Since the visa of exiled Bangladeshi writer Taslima Nasreen, who has been barred from coming out in public, was given by the Centre, it was up to her to decide whether she would stay in India, West Bengal Speaker H A Halim said on Friday.

She should also abide by the country's rules and regulations since she is staying in India on a visa, he said.

"Nasreen is staying in India on a visa provided by the Indian government. She should abide by the laws of the country," Halim said at a function in Kolkata.

The speaker also said that she should not do not anything which would hurt the religious sentiments of the people.
