I take my words back: Kangana Ranaut on farm laws remark

Actor-turned-politician Kangana Ranaut sparked controversy by suggesting that the three farm reform laws, which were repealed after widespread farmers' protests, should be reinstated. Her remarks drew strong criticism from the BJP, prompting the Mandi Lok Sabha MP to issue a public apology, stating, "I take my words back."

On Tuesday, the BJP distanced itself from her remarks and stated that Kangana Ranaut is “not authorised” to make such remarks on the party's behalf.

In a video message, BJP spokesperson Gaurav Bhatia stated that the comments are a "personal statement" of Ranaut and don't represent the party's stand on the farm bills.
