While extracting text from file, we are getting 
org.apache.tika.exception.TikaException: XML parse error.

Code - 
FileInputStream inputStream = new FileInputStream(file);
    BodyContentHandler handler = new BodyContentHandler();
    AutoDetectParser parser = new AutoDetectParser();
    Metadata metadata = new Metadata();
    metadata.add(Metadata.CONTENT_ENCODING, Charset.defaultCharset().name());
    parser.parse(inputStream, handler, metadata);

Stack trace - 
Exception in thread "main" org.apache.tika.exception.TikaException: XML parse

Error is due to '&' character present in xml file.

Is there a way we can override or correct this exception in tika by setting 
some property.
