Actor-politician Kangana Ranaut has been reprimanded by the BJP leadership after her remarks on the farmers' protest triggered controversy. A clarification accompanied the reproof: Ms Ranaut's remark does not represent the party's views. The BJP expresses disagreement with it.
The BJP's disapproval came a day after the 38-year-old suggested that the farmers' protest could have led to a Bangladesh-like crisis in India if not for the strong steps taken by the government.
