Hitting back on the critics over the Chandigarh airport slapping incident, Mandi Member of Parliament and Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut stated on her social media handle,” Every rapist, murderer or thief always have a strong emotional, physical, psychological or financial reason to commit a crime, no crime ever happens without a reason, yet they are convicted and sentenced to jail.

Adding, that,” Remember if you are ok with breaking in to someone’s intimate zone, without their permission touching their bodies and assaulting them then deep down you are ok with rape or murder also because that’s also just penetration or stab only what big deal, you must look deeper in to your psychological criminal tendencies.”
Noteworthy that on Thursday (June 6) the actress Ranaut was slapped by a CISF (Central Industrial Security Force) constable at Chandigarh airport. Since then, the shocking incident continued to dominate the media space, with the updates and the reactions pouring in.
On Friday an FIR was registered against CISF guard Kulwinder Kaur for slapping Ranaut. The case has been registered against her under Sections 323 (voluntarily causing hurt) and 341 (wrongful restraint) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC). No arrest has been made so far.
On the day of the incident, she while announcing her safety, and talking about the incidence equated it with an increasing trend of terrorism in Punjab. “ How do we handle the increasing terrorism in Punjab, she stated.

Noteworthy the incident has drawn different views on social media. Some in favour and few against the outspoken actress. In the row of sharing her views on the incident, Shiromani Akali Dal MP from Bathinda, Harsimrat Kaur Badal condemned Ranaut for ‘saying stupid things’. “Kangana Ranaut should understand her responsibility instead of trying to please her High Command…Being an actress, she is followed by many people, when you say stupid things and make useless comments then there is a reaction,” was she quoted by a news agency.
Even farmers have fallen in support of the CISF constable. In a video statement, Bharatiya Kisan Union (BKU) leader Rakesh Tikait expressed solidarity with Kaur, referring to her as a ‘daughter’. Tikait criticized Ranaut for her past comments about farmers, which he believes provoked the incident. He called for a thorough investigation and suggested that Kaur should be granted bail, emphasizing the widespread frustration among both farmers and security personnel.

However, reacting to the varied opinions Kangana today suggested critics to start practicing yoga and meditation will help in controlling emotions. Concluding her post, she wrote, ”I suggest please take up yoga and meditation or else life will become a bitter and burdensome experience, don’t carry so much grudge, hate and jealousy please , free yourself.”
