MP-MLA court in UP summons Kangana over 'objectionable' remarks on farmers' protest
BULANDSHAHR: An MP-MLA court here has summoned Lok Sabha member and actor Kangana Ranaut on October 25 over a case filed against her for making objectionable remarks about the 2020-21 farmers' protest, a lawyer said Friday.
The complaint filed by a functionary of the Bharatiya Kisan Union (Kisan Shakti) pertains to Ranaut's remarks during media interviews in which she claimed "violence", "rapes" and "murders" happened during the protest against three controversial farm laws, which were later withdrawn by the Centre.
"The matter was filed in the court on September 19 which issued notice to Kangna Ranaut for (appearance) on October 25. The matter pertains to her comments against farmers during the protest," advocate Sanjay Sharma, representing the plaintiff, said.
