django tastypie returning 401 always for POST method and works well for GET

Question

Here is my code

     class termTypeResource(ModelResource):
        class Meta:
           queryset = TermType.objects.all()
           resource_name = 'gettermtypes'
           allowed_methods = ['get','post']

Whenever I do curl for the api like below

 curl --dump-header - -H "Content-Type: application/json" -X POST --data {"termtype":"LONG"}' --apiURL--

it is returning (Note: I dont want to add authentication or authorization for api POST)

HTTP/1.0 401 UNAUTHORIZED

From tastypie tutorial: http://django-tastypie.readthedocs.org/en/latest/tutorial.html#hooking-up-the-resource-s

However, if you try sending a POST/PUT/DELETE to the resource, you find yourself getting “401 Unauthorized” errors. For safety, Tastypie ships with the authorization class (“what are you allowed to do”) set to ReadOnlyAuthorization. This makes it safe to expose on the web, but prevents us from doing POST/PUT/DELETE. Let's enable those:

authorization = Authorization()

But you specified this as Authorization = , it's wrong. And, how it is mentioned in tutorial, POST and etc. without authentication is insecure.
