Actor-politician Kangana Ranaut has found herself on the centre of one more controversy, this time involving her own party, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). The 38-year-old MP from Himachal Pradesh’s Mandi district was publicly reprimanded by the BJP leadership after her remarks on the farmers’ protest stirred significant backlash. The party clarified that her comments don’t reflect the BJP’s stance, underscoring that she is just not authorized to talk on policy matters.
Kangana Ranaut reprimanded by BJP over controversial remarks on farmers’ protest: “She is neither permitted nor authorised to make statements on party policy issues”
The controversy erupted after Kangana suggested that the farmers’ protest, which had gripped the nation for over a 12 months, could have led to a crisis just like that of Bangladesh if not for the decisive actions taken by the Indian government. She said in Hindi, “Bangladesh-like anarchy could have happened in India also like within the name of farmers’ protest. Outside forces are planning to destroy us with the assistance of insiders. If it hadn’t been for the foresight of our leadership, they might have succeeded. What happened in Bangladesh, it could have easily happened here too. There may be a conspiracy by foreign powers and these filmy people thrive on it. They don’t care if the country goes to the dogs.”
“The statement made by BJP MP Kangana Ranaut within the context of the farmers’ movement is just not the opinion of the party. BJP disagrees with the statement made by Kangana Ranaut. On behalf of the party, Kangana Ranaut is neither permitted nor authorised to make statements on party policy issues. The Bharatiya Janata Party is committed to following the principles of ‘Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas and Sabka Prayas’ and social harmony,” the BJP said in a proper statement, as reported by NDTV.
In 2020, through the height of the farmers’ protests against the now-repealed three farm laws, Kangana misidentified a girl farmer from Punjab, who was participating within the protests, as Bilkis Bano, an elderly woman who had turn into one in all the faces of the anti-Citizenship Amendment Law (CAA) protests at Delhi’s Shaheen Bagh. Kangana went on to suggest that the girl was “available for Rs. 100,” insinuating that she might be hired to protest.
The controversy surrounding her comments resurfaced when she was reportedly slapped by a girl Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) constable on the Chandigarh airport while on her method to Delhi in June this 12 months.
