Kangana Ranaut's Farmer Post Row
Public sensitivity is crucial and must be constantly checked to avoid public outrage.
Kangana Ranaut's "100 rupees" comment sparked a fiery debate during the farmers' protest. She tweeted about the protest and shared a photograph of Mahinder Kaur, an elderly farmer woman from Bhatinda, allegedly noting that women like Kaur are available for 100 rupees.
Ranaut's remark led to a defamation complaint filed by Mahinder Kaur in January 2021.
- In 2022, a Bhatinda judicial court summoned Kangana Ranaut to appear.
- Ranaut attempted to quash the complaint, but the high court intervened, citing 'no merit'.
This incident highlights the importance of free speech and public sensitivity.
