'Doesn't reflect party's view...': BJP distances itself from Kangana Ranaut's remarks on farm laws

New Delhi [India], September 25 : Bharatiya Janata Party has distanced itself from the remarks of party leader Kangana Ranaut on farm laws while stating that the actor is "not authorised" to make such statements on the party's behalf.
This comes after Ranaut suggested that the three farm laws that were repealed following prolonged farmer protests should be brought back.
The actor-turned-politician had told the media, "I know this statement could be controversial, but the three farm laws should be brought back. Farmers themselves should demand it."
BJP spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia said the remarks are "personal statement" of Ranauat and doesn't depict BJP's view on farm bills.
"On the social media platforms, BJP MP Kangana Ranaut's statement on the farm bills that was withdrawn by central govt, is going viral. I want to make it clear that this statement is a personal statement of her," Bhatia said.
"Kangana Ranaut is not authorised to make such a statement on behalf of the BJP, and it doesn't depict the BJP's view on the farm bills. We disapprove of this statement," he added.
The Mandi MP has drawn ire over her remarks on farm laws.
Earlier, Punjab Congress President Amarinder Singh Raja criticised the actor, calling her "habitually controversial."
"I think she is mentally unstable. Some people are accustomed to creating controversy, and the BJP benefits from her statements. She talks about farmers, Punjab, the Emergency, and Rahul Gandhi. There are other MPs who never make such remarks," the Congress leader said.
Notably, this is not the first time, BJP has distanced itself from Ranaut's remarks and stated that she is "not authorised" to make such statements on the party's behalf.
Last month, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) distanced itself from Mandi MP Kangana Ranaut's statement about the farmers' agitation and also asked the actor-turned-politician to refrain from giving such statements in the future.
"The statement made by BJP MP Kangana Ranaut in the context of the farmers' movement is not the opinion of the party. Bharatiya Janata Party expresses disagreement with the statement made by Kangana Ranaut. On behalf of the party, Kangana Ranaut is neither permitted nor authorized to make statements on party policy issues," the party said in a release.
"On behalf of the Bharatiya Janata Party, Kangana Ranaut has been directed not to make any such statements in future. Bharatiya Janata Party is committed to following the principles of 'Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas and Sabka Prayas' and social harmony," it added.
The actor had then claimed that farmer protests were a build up to a "Bangladesh-like situation" in India and several killings and rapes were reported from the protest sites.
