Mumbai: Maharashtra BJP supremo Chandrakant Patil said that actor Kangana Ranaut’s statement that the Independence India won back in 1947 was “bheek” (alms) was completely wrong.
The actor has been facing the wrath from several quarters after stating at an event recently that India truly won freedom in 2014, bringing in a reference to the saffron party coming to power at the Centre.
“Kangana Ranaut’s comment on the country’s fight for Independence is completely wrong. Nobody has a right to pass a negative remark on the freedom movement,” Patil told reporters here. He also added that he did not know the “emotions” that made Ranaut utter such a statement.
“After Narendra Modi became prime minister in 2014, the common man is having an experience of true freedom. Now, there is no one left in the country who cannot have two meals a day. The Union government is distributing 35 kg food grains to the poor at ₹ 105,” Patil said.
