The Delhi assembly’s commission on peace and harmony has summoned actress Kangana Ranaut for her anti-Sikh statements, according to sources. Ms Ranaut has been summoned to seem on December 6 before a committee chaired by Aam Aadmi Party leader Raghav Chadha.
According to sources, Ms Ranaut has been called for her “obnoxious and abusive remarks on Sikhs.”
Sikhs have filed a first information report, or FIR, against the actor in Mumbai, alleging that he used discriminatory words against them on social media.
Ms Ranaut “intentionally and deliberately” depicted the year-long protest by farmers against three new farm rules as a “Khalistani” movement, according to a police complaint filed by a Mumbai businessman and representatives of the Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee and the Shiromani Akali Dal.
“Terrorists from Khalistan may be putting pressure on the government now… But don’t forget about one woman… The only female prime minister in the country ne inn ko apni jooti ke neeche crush kiya tha (the only woman PM who crushed them under her shoes). She squashed them like insects at the cost of her own life, no matter how much agony she gave this country… But she did not allow the nation to be split (Lekin desh k tukde nahi hone diye) “Ms Ranaut made a message on Instagram that was seen as a reference to former Prime Minister Indira Gandhi, who was assassinated in October 1984 by her Sikh bodyguards. after the riots, about 3,000 people were killed, with armed men targeting Sikhs across Delhi, destroying and vandalising homes, shops, and gurdwaras.
The actor has been a vocal opponent of farmers’ protests, particularly in Haryana and Punjab, against three farm regulations that the federal government has recently agreed to repeal.
