BJP chastises Kangana Ranaut for remarks about farmers' protest

The Bharatiya Janata Party on Monday attacked actress and MP Kangana Ranaut for saying that the ongoing protests being held by farmers are linked to the Bangladesh conflict. The Bharatiya Janata Party attacked actor and MP Kangana Ranaut on Monday for her statement that farmer protests organized have a connection with unrest in Bangladesh.

The stand of the Bharatiya Janata Party is not to agree to what Ms. uttered. “Ms. Kangana Ranaut is not allowed to speak on BJP policy issues and she is not authorized to do so”, said BJP through an official statement issued today.

“BJP has cautioned Ms. Kangana Ranaut not to make such utterances in future.” It is the objective of Bharatiya Janata Party, with its motto “Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, and Sabka Prayaas,” to ensure that all people stay in harmony with one another.

She had earlier provoked a row by saying the agitation of farmers might have turned out into something like the crisis in Bangladesh, had the Narendra Modi administration not intervened effectively.

“The anarchy that took place in Bangladesh can also take place here in the name of the Farmer’s protest,” she said while uploading the video on her X account. The people against us, the external powers, have made some scheme to destroy us with the help of people working within our government; if our leadership would not have been smart enough to perceive what was going to happen, we would have also succeeded in that attempt.

Kangana on farmers’ protest

This is not the first time that Kangana Ranaut has been embroiled in such controversy parallel to the farmers’ demonstration against the farm laws, which have now been repealed, in 2020-21.

“A septuagenarian was misidentified as Bilkis Bano, face of Shaheen Bagh, by the actor, through an X post he put up on social media when farmers staged the protest.She wrote that the woman was ‘available for ₹100’ to protest with her.”.

A CISF constable slapped Kangana Ranaut on the face on June 6 at the Chandigarh airport, where she arrived after being elected a Member of Parliament from the Mandi constituency in Himachal Pradesh.

As per the CISF constable reporting the situation, her mother was a farmer and had been one of the farmers who had participated in the sit-in protest against the new farm laws, which have been withdrawn since then.
She said, “They are sitting there. The farmers are sitting there for one hundred rupees. Is she going to go and go sit there? “At the time that she made this statement, my mother was still sitting there and demonstrating,” she explained. The farmers’ demonstration had lasted fifteen months and was set against the farm laws that have now been repealed, along with a multitude of other issues.
