Kangana Ranaut has been embroiled in controversies by saying 2014 was the year of independence of the country. Fans on social media are demanding her withdrawal of Padma Shri. Not only that, they started protesting against her all over the country. Though Kangana is not ready to apologise even after her controversial statement, she has also said that She does not know what war took place in 1947. If anyone can tell me, I will return my Padma Shri and apologise. Kangana's statement has now been targeted by AIMIM national president Asaduddin Owaisi.
Is treason just for Muslims? : Owaisi has asked if treason is only for Muslims? Will they accuse Kangana Ranaut of treason? Owaisi, without naming Kangana, has also said, "If I believe in Indian nationalism, she has got Padma Shri."If we have said this, UAPA would have been imposed, would have been beaten to death. This statement stated that in 2014, the country has truly become independent. I want to ask PM and CM and UP whether it got independence in 1947 or in 2014.
Taking a dig at Kangana's statement, Owaisi has said, 'She is a Queen and you are king (Yogi Adityanath) but you are not going to do anything. Baba had even threatened to put in jail, those who commented after the India-Pak T20 match on sedition charges'. Remember, UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath also warned those celebrating Pak's victory after the Indo-Pak match on October 24.
What Kangana has said in her defence: Kangana wrote, 'I have worked in a feature movie on Rani Laxmi Bai of Jhansi. She has done a lot of research on the battle of 1857. Nationalism was accompanied by the rise of the right, but how did it suddenly end? And why did Gandhiji let Bhagat Singh die? After all, why was Leader Bose assassinated and he never got Gandhiji's support'? Continuing, Kangana said, 'Why was the line of partition drawn by an Englishman? Instead of celebrating independence, Indians were killing each other. I need answers to some questions I need help with. As far as independence in 2014 is concerned, I specifically said that the physical freedom we can have, people cannot shame us for not speaking English for the first time or coming from small towns or using products made in India. Jai Hind.
