Bollywood actor Kangana Ranaut, who recently won the Lok Sabha elections from Mandi constituency in Himachal Pradesh, left for Delhi on Thursday afternoon.
An unfortunate and shocking incident occurred on the way to Delhi when a CISF personnel on duty slapped Kangana Ranaut after the actress was cleared through security.
Kangana Ranaut shared her ordeal on her Instagram story.
In a video message on Thursday, Kangana Ranaut said that a police officer punched her in the face and assaulted her during a security check at Chandigarh airport.
In a statement, Kangana Ranaut said, “I have been receiving a lot of calls from media and well-wishers. Firstly, I am safe and absolutely fine. The incident which happened at Chandigarh airport today took place during the security check. As soon as I cleared the security check and came out, a woman, a CISF security staff member in the second cabin, came from the side, punched me in the face and started hurling abusive language. When I asked her why she did this, she replied that she supports the farmers’ protest but is concerned about the rise in terrorism in Punjab. What should I do?”
According to CISF officials, following the incident, Constable Kulwinder Kaur was immediately suspended and an FIR has been filed against her.
However, some celebrities came out in support of Kangana, with some even praising the bravery of the women in the CISF.
Kangana slams people praising the CISF officer who slapped her
Actor and politician Kangana Ranaut on Saturday criticised people who praised the female police officer from India’s Central Sulawesi province who allegedly slapped her, asking whether they were also justifying “rape and murder”.
Rapists, murderers, and thieves all always have strong emotional, physical, psychological, or economic reasons for committing their crimes, and crimes never happen without a reason, yet they are convicted and put in prison nonetheless.
If you identify with the criminal’s strong emotional impulses…— Kangana Ranaut (Modi Ka Parivar) (@KanganaTeam) June 8, 2024
Kangana Ranaut wrote, “Rapists, murderers and thieves always have strong emotional, physical, psychological or economic reasons for committing their crimes. No crime is committed without a reason, yet they are convicted and sent to prison. If you go along with the criminal’s strong emotional urge to commit a crime, you will be violating all the laws of the country. Remember, if you are comfortable invading someone’s intimate sphere, touching them without their permission and assaulting them, then deep down you will also be comfortable with raping and murdering them, because it is just penetration and stabbing. It is not a big deal. You have to take a deep look at your psychological criminal tendencies. I suggest you take up yoga and meditation, otherwise life will become a bitter and burdensome experience. Free yourself from so much resentment, hatred and jealousy.”
Meanwhile, music director Vishal Dadlani said they will help women in CISF to get jobs.
Sharing a video report of the incident, Vishal wrote in the caption, “I have never supported violence but I completely understand the need for this @official_cisf officer’s anger. If CISF takes any action against her, I assure you there will be a job waiting for her if she chooses to accept. Jai Hind. Jai Jawaan. Jai Kisaan.”
Vishal posted a new Instagram story after reports of Kaul’s suspension surfaced, writing, “Dhungana’s allies, what if she says ‘Your mom is available for 100 rupees’?” In another story, he added, “Again, if Ms Kaul is relieved of her duties, someone can reach out to me and I will ensure that she gets a decent job.”
