Public Apology and Retraction
Actor-turned-politician Kangana Ranaut recently issued a public apology and retracted her statement regarding the controversial farm laws. In a video statement, she expressed regret for her comments, acknowledging that they might have disappointed many people.
Initial Controversy
The controversy began when Kangana, a BJP MP, suggested in an interview that the three farm laws, which were repealed in 2021 following widespread protests, should be reinstated. She argued that the laws had been beneficial for farmers and that they should themselves demand their return. However, her remarks drew sharp criticism from various quarters, including her own party.

Party’s Response
In response to the backlash, the BJP distanced itself from her comments, clarifying that she was not authorized to speak on behalf of the party regarding the farm laws. Kangana then issued a public apology, stating, “I take my words back” and emphasized the importance of respecting Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s decision to withdraw the laws.
Commitment to Party Stance
She further explained that her opinions should align with the party’s stance rather than being personal views. Kangana reiterated her commitment to the party and expressed her regret for any disappointment her statement might have caused.
This incident highlights the sensitivity surrounding the farm laws and the importance of careful communication by public figures, especially those holding political office.
