In a significant development, the BJP has distanced itself from Kangana Ranaut following her controversial remarks linking the farmers` protest to the unrest in Bangladesh. During a promotional event for her upcoming film, Ranaut drew a parallel between the two, prompting a strong backlash. On August 26, the BJP issued a statement condemning her comments and instructed her to avoid making similar statements in the future. In response, Congress leader Mumtaz Patel criticized the BJP, suggesting that they are now facing the consequences of their association with Ranaut. Known for her provocative statements, the actor-turned-politician has often attracted controversy. The BJP’s move underscores its attempt to manage the fallout from Ranaut’s inflammatory remarks while distancing itself from her provocative rhetoric.
