New Delhi: The Himachal Pradesh Assembly has adopted a Congress-backed resolution to condemn remarks made by Bharatiya Janata Party MP from Mandi Kangana Ranaut for her recent comments on farmers’ protests.
Kangana Ranaut posted a clip of her interview with Hindi daily Dainik Bhaskar in which she suggested that a “Bangladesh-like situation” could have erupted in India but for the country’s strong leadership. She then alleged that bodies were hanging and rapes were taking place during the farmers’ protest against the now-repealed three farm laws.
She alleged the involvement of China and the US in the “conspiracy”.
Kangana Ranaut’s remarks triggered heated exchanges in the Assembly of her Congress-ruled home state as the House adopted a resolution condemning the remarks.
Thousands of farmers from Haryana, Punjab, Uttar Pradesh and other places had held an agitation at Delhi’s borders for several months over the now-repealed farm laws
As Haryana will go to polls on October 1, the opposition hit out at the BJP MP over the issue. AAP’s Haryana president Sushil Gupta said that this highlighted BJP’s “mindset” towards farmers. AAP held several protests in Haryana as well.
