New Delhi [India], June 8 (ANI): BJP leader Shaina NC on Saturday came out in support of actor Kangana Ranaut after a Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) constable slapped her at Chandigarh airport a few days ago, saying that legal action should be taken in this matter.
“Be it any woman or any case, you cannot take the law into your own hands… What message are you giving to society by slapping someone… Legal action should be taken in this matter,” she told ANI.
The incident occurred at Chandigarh airport on June 6 around 3:30 pm when Kangana was about to board a flight to Delhi to attend a meeting of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA), when a CISF woman constable allegedly slapped Kangana while she was headed to Delhi for the NDA meeting.
An FIR has been lodged against the constable under IPC sections 321 and 341, but no arrest has been made.
Hours after the incident, Kangana released a video on her official Instagram page, where she narrated the details and expressed concern over “rising terrorism and extremism in Punjab.”
In the video, Kangana said, “I am getting a lot of phone calls from the media and my well-wishers. Firstly, I am safe, I am perfectly fine. The incident that took place at Chandigarh airport with security staff. The moment I came out after the security check, a security staff member in another cabin came from the side and hit me on my face and started abusing me.”
“When I asked her (CISF jawan), why did she do this, she said that she supported the farmers’ protest. I am safe but my concern is that jo aatankwad aur ugarwad Punjab mai bad raha hai (the terrorism and extremism that is rising in Punjab), how do we handle that?” she asked.
On the day of the incident, another video went viral, where the constable said, “Isne (Kangana) byan diya tha na 100-100 Rs ke liye baith ti hai waha pe, ye baithi thi wha pe? Meri Maa baithi thi us time jab isne byan diya tha. Maa ki insult sehan nai huyi (She had given a statement that women farmers were sitting at the farmers’ protest for Rs 100 each. My mother was also sitting there when she gave this statement. I could not tolerate the insult of my mother).” (ANI)
