Chandigarh, June 6 (UNI) Actor and newly-elected BJP MP from Mandi, Kangana Ranaut, was allegedly slapped by a woman CISF Jawan Kulwinder Kaur at the Chandigarh Airport on Thursday.

Ranaut said that when she was going for a security check, the CISF jawan slapped her. When she asked her the reason she was told that it was over her anti-farmers remarks.

The Dhakad actor added that she was concerned by the terrorism and extremism on rise in Punjab and said it needed to be addressed.

Later, in a video on social media, the CISF jawan said: “Isne bayaan diyaa tha na ki 100-100 rupaye mein baithti hain vahan pe, ‘meri maa baithi thi’ jab isne bayaan diya tha (Hadn’t she remarked that the protesters were sitting for Rs 100? My mother was sitting there.”

Ranaut’s reported remarks were in context of women sitting at the Delhi borders during farmers’ agitation over three controversial farm laws in 2020-21.
