The SKM (Non-Political) and the Kisan Mazdoor Sangharsh Committee today announced their support for the suspended CISF constable.
Farmer leaders alleged that Bollywood actor Ranaut had called Kulwinder a “Khalistan Kaur”.
Kulwinder had claimed that her mother was part of the 2020 farmers' protest, when the actor had commented that “women protestors could be hired for Rs 100”.
Leaders of the two groups, who have been protesting at the Shambhu and Khanauri borders since February 2024 against the “unfulfilled” promises made to them by the BJP, said they would meet the Punjab DGP to seek proper investigation in the case.
On June 9, an Insaaf March from Gurdwara Amb Sahib in Mohali to the office of SSP Mohali will be held to seek justice for Kulwinder, they said.
The farmer leaders also objected to words used by Kangna Ranaut after the incident at the Chandigarh Airport. Scoffing at the actor for calling the people of Punjab separatists, they demanded an FIR against her for trying to incite people.
Farmer leaders Jagjit Singh Dallewal and Sarabjit Singh Pandher said that Kulwinder’s brother was a part of their organisation and was active in farmer movements.
The leaders said that farmers across the country have managed to defeat the BJP in several rural constituencies in the recently held Lok Sabha election. “People have taught them a lesson. They wanted to cross 400 seats, but people stopped their victory march at 240 seats. They won in just 165 rural constituencies this time, against 236 won last year,” said Dallewal, adding that even in the Onion belt of Maharashtra, of 14 seats, they lost on 13 seats.
In a video, Kangana can be seen walking towards the new Parliament building and while at it, she got mobbed by the media present outside. It was then that the actress got irked with a reporter and was seen getting into an argument with him.
As the reporter questioned her over the slap incident, it was heard saying.” Ye kya kar rahe hai aap, as she dodged his mike.
In the video, the reporter could be heard asking, "Maam what are you doing? I was just asking you a question," and Kangana shot an annoying look trying to avoid an argued with him.
The guards present intervened and she was eventually escorted inside the Parliament building amid the chaos
In another video, she was seen leaving from the Parliament without taking any questions from the media.
Kangana on Friday morning went to her Instagram stories, where she shared a tweet by former Indian Army Officer Gaurav Arya, who had written on X: “CISF Constable Kulwinder Kaur who attacked Kangna Ranaut will be punished. She may lose her job. That is what she probably planned all along. This whole thing about supporting the farmer's protest is utter nonsense.”
“Kulwinder Kaur has just entered politics. If Beant Singh's son can win just because his father assassinated Indira Gandhi and Amritpal Singh can win because he looks like Bhindranwale, Kulwinder Kaur will receive support, too.”
Sharing the tweet, Kangana wrote: “This makes most sense to me, she strategically waited for me to cross her and in a signature Khalistani style quietly came from behind and hit my face Without saying a word.”
Kangana, who is the newly-elected BJP MP from Mandi, Himachal Pradesh, was on her way to Delhi when the incident took place. She shared that she asked the constable as to why she hit the politician-actress
“When I asked why she did that, she looked away and started to speak in to the phone cameras focused at her (can be seen in her videos) hogging sudden public attention, farmers laws have been repealed and they don't concern anyone anymore probably this was her way of joining Khalistani bandwagon which is getting major political seats in Punjab,” she wrote.
Moments later, Kangana shared an image of two guards killing a lady, depicting former Indian Prime Minister Indira Gandhi's assassination in 1984
“Emergency will be out soon to show how a disarmed elderly lady was killed inside her own house by people in uniform who she trusted with her security, and they used 35 bullets to kill one old aged lady, story of brave Khalistanis will be out soon,” she wrote.
On Thursday a clip started to do the rounds on X following the incident. It was at the security checkpoint where Kaur slapped Kangana.
