Kangana Ranaut slapped by CISF constable at Chandigarh airport after calling farmers 'Khalistanis

Bollywood actress and newly-elected BJP MP Kangana Ranaut was involved in an altercation with CISF female security guard Kulwinder Kaur at Chandigarh airport on Thursday.

The incident occurred during the security check for her flight to Delhi. According to Ranaut, Kaur abused and hit her, allegedly due to her support for the farmers' protest.

The altercation has raised concerns about the growing tension and unrest in Punjab. In response to the incident, Kaur was detained and held at the commandant's office at the airport, while police began recording her statements to file an FIR.

Ranaut addressed the incident in a video statement shared on platform X, assuring her well-wishers that she is safe and fine.

She expressed concern over the rising terrorism in Punjab, attributing the security guard's actions to her anger over Ranaut's previous derogatory remarks about the farmers' protest.

The altercation has highlighted the ongoing controversy surrounding the farmers' protest and the polarized reactions to Ranaut's comments on the issue.
