Kangana Ranaut, a well-known Bollywood actress, has recently stirred controversy with her comments about farmers. Since entering politics, her remarks have often led to criticism, and her latest statement about the farmer protests has caused a significant backlash. The BJP, her party, has distanced itself from her comments.

Chirag Paswan’s Response
Chirag Paswan, a central minister and a close friend of Kangana, addressed her statements during a TV program. He acknowledged their friendship and praised her as a strong-willed woman. Paswan said, “Kangana is a good friend and has her own opinions, which she expresses openly. People may agree or disagree with her views. Now that she is in politics, she should be careful, but I will not interfere. This is a matter for the BJP.”

Friendship Between Paswan and Ranaut
Paswan had previously spoken about his friendship with Kangana in an interview. He described her as a good friend and appreciated her directness, even if it was sometimes politically incorrect. He mentioned that although they had lost touch due to his busy schedule, he valued their friendship.

BJP’s Disagreement with Kangana’s Statement
The BJP disagreed with Kangana’s comments about the farmers’ protests. She had claimed that the protests were causing violence and rape in Punjab, and she also mentioned potential threats from neighboring countries like Bangladesh. The BJP stated that her views did not reflect the party’s stance and advised her to avoid such statements in the future. The party clarified that Kangana was not authorized to speak on behalf of the BJP regarding its policy matters.

Congress’s Reaction
The Congress party has called on the BJP to expel Kangana from the party if it truly disagrees with her views. The BJP’s distancing from Kangana highlights the ongoing controversy and differing opinions within the political landscape.
