This followed her meeting with Indian Home Minister Rajnath Singh, to whom she requested for grant of long-term extension of her residence permit.
"I met Rajnath Singh today (Saturday) and gave him my book 'Wo Andhere Din' (Those Dark Days). In return he said my dark days are over," Taslima told bdnews24.com.
Earlier, Taslima had expressed her anguish after the government on Wednesday refused her a one-year visa giving her instead a temporary permission to stay in India for two months.
After her furious outburst on a social networking site, huge support for her has been pouring from various quarters in India.
Press Council of India Chairperson and former Supreme Court judge Markandey Katju demanded permanent visa for the 52-year-old writer who has been living in exile since 1994.
Taslima, however, expressed her surprise over intellectuals from Kolkata -- her "second home" -- remaining silent on the issue.
Most West Bengal intellectuals, specially those close to the state's ruling Trinamul Congress, are uncomfortable with the prospects of her return to India.
"I am surely surprised that people in Kolkata known for their righteous stand have chosen to remain silent. But at the same time I must admit I have gotten used to this. There were not many voices when I was thrown of my home β Kolkata," she said.
