Kangana Ranaut says farmers should demand return of farm laws, Cong reacts

“BJP MP Kangana Ranaut is saying the three black laws that were imposed on the farmers, should be restored. The Modi government woke up only after the martyrdom of more than 750 farmers and withdrew the laws. Now, BJP MPs are planning to bring back these laws. The Congress stands with farmers and these black laws will never return, even if Narendra Modi and his MPs tried their best,” the grand old party wrote on X (formerly Twitter).

In the video, the actor-politician presents her case for the farm laws to be reinstated.

“I know this will be controversial but I feel the farm laws, should be restored. The farmers themselves should demand. They are the nation's pillar of strength and I want to appeal – for your own good, demand for the laws to return,” she said.

Last month, Ranaut was warned by the saffron party over her statement that the agitation against farm laws could have created a Bangladesh-like situation in India. Her remark came days after Bangladeshi leader Sheikh Hasina was forced to resign as prime minister and flee amid student-led protests against her.
