After the protest by opposition leaders, farmers the saffron party keeping in mind the Haryana, Jammu and Kashmir assembly elections, on August 26,2024 distanced itself from recent statements made by actor-turned-politician Kangana Ranaut regarding the farmers’ movement.

Meanwhile when contacted BJP’s national general secretary Tarun Chugh, the person who responded the call said “he is not going to say anything on this issue.”
When contacted BKU leader Jagjeet Singh Dallewal he said “the double standard of BJP has come to fore. On one side the party had given statement about distancing itself from her but at the same time they didn’t ask her to remove the controversial content even after 24 hours. She is forwarding the ideology of BJP. That’s why she has given anti-farmers statement. Farmers are more patriotic than her. Rather she is breaking the country by her sinful statements. The BJP party not only expels her but book her for anti-national statements, activities.”

These shameful anti-farmer statements are a gross insult to the farmers of the entire country which cannot be accepted under any circumstances. The BJP must expel her from the party.”
In an interview clip, the actor-turned-politician’s account on X shared a video clip of her comments uploaded by another social media user. She was saying “What happened in Bangladesh would not have taken time to happen in India if our top leadership had not been strong. In the farmers’ protest here, dead bodies were hanging and rapes were being committed. When those laws in favour of farmers were taken back, the whole country was shocked. Those farmers are still sitting there. They never thought the laws would be repealed. There was a long planning, just like in Bangladesh. Such was the conspiracy … China, America, these kinds of foreign powers are working here”
