New Delhi: Businessman and husband of Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra has criticised BJP MP Kangana Ranaut for her remarks about the farmers’ protest. Vadra voiced his strong disapproval of Ranaut’s participation in Parliament, responding to her recent comments on the issue.
“I respect her but I feel that she has no place in the Parliament, ” Vadra questioned her educational qualifications and implied that she prioritises her personal interests over the welfare of the public. “She should also think about women,” he added, urging that women’s safety and representation are crucial.
Ranaut’s comments on protests draw sharp rebuke
Earlier this week, the Mandi MP claimed that the farmers’ protest against the now-repealed farm laws could have led to a “Bangladesh-like situation” in India without strong leadership. She also alleged that “bodies were hanging and rapes were taking place” during the protest. In response, the saffron party swiftly distanced itself from her remarks, expressing “strong disagreement.”
