"Ye Kangana nahi...BJP kehelva rahi hai unse": Deepender Hooda slams Kangana Ranaut over her remarks on farmers

Sonipat (Haryana) [India], September 26 : Congress MP Deepender Hooda on Sunday targeted actor-turned-politician Kangana Ranaut over her remarks on farmers and said that BJP shows its intentions and it is not Kangana, but her party is making her say this.
Earlier, Mandi Lok Sabha MP Kangana Ranaut had suggested that the three farm laws that were repealed following prolonged farmer protests should be brought back.
"Time and again, the BJP shows its intentions and I don't know why it keeps on rubbing salt on the wounds of farmers. They did not fulfil the promises they made and then threatened to bring back all three laws. 'Ye kangana nahi balki BJP kehelva rahi hai unse," Hooda said.
Targeting the BJP government in Haryana, Deepender Hooda said that the people of Haryana got nothing in last 10 years.
"Haryana has the highest unemployment, crime rate, inflation, and corruption in the country. Khattar Sahib did not listen to anyone, which is why today BJP also changed him. People have decided to change and the Congress government will come to power in Haryana with a big majority," he added.
On Wednesday, the actor-turned-politician issued a public apology and expressed "regret" over her statement.
The actor-turned-politician was quoted as saying, "I know this statement could be controversial, but the three farm laws should be brought back. Farmers themselves should demand it."
After the BJP stated that her comments were "not authorized," Kangana retracted her remarks and issued an apology. She added that moving forward, she will ensure her views align with the party's stance rather than representing her personal opinions.
"When farmer's laws were proposed, a lot of people came out in support of them, but with a lot of sensitivity, our Prime Minister retracted those laws, so it is the responsibility of all the workers of his party to respect his words. I will also have to keep one thing in mind that now I am not an artist but a BJP worker. My opinions will not just be mine but will represent the party's stand. So if I have hurt anyone's sentiments with my thoughts, I regret it and take my words back," Kangana said in a self-made video, posted on X.
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.
