Bharatiya Janata Party leader Kangana Ranaut’s recent interviews have drawn substantial social media attention, with trolls targeting her for comments on Rahul Gandhi and the caste census. In a widely circulated clip from an interview with News24 on Thursday, Ranaut questioned why Congress leader Rahul Gandhi is the Leader of the Opposition in Parliament, asking, “Rahul Gandhi ko opposition leader ki uplabdhi kyu mili hai. Unhone kya teer mara hai?” The TV anchor then clarified that Gandhi obtained the position because his party secured one-tenth of the seats in the Lok Sabha. Ranaut dismissed the explanation, stating, “Agar apko aise bat karni hai toh uska koi jawab ho hi nahi sakta.”
Social media reactions were swift and mocking. Commenters questioned her state of mind and called for her to receive psychiatric help. Some suggested she was embarrassing both herself and her party, with one user tagging BJP’s social media handle to highlight this concern.
In another interview, this time with LallanTop, Ranaut faced criticism for her comments on the caste census. She incorrectly identified Ram Nath Kovind as India’s first Dalit President. The anchor corrected her, pointing out that K R Narayan held that distinction. Ranaut acknowledged her mistake, saying, “Sorry for my misinformation.”
These incidents have sparked a flurry of reactions online, reflecting public amusement and criticism of Ranaut’s political acumen. The backlash underscores the increasing scrutiny public figures face, especially when venturing into politically sensitive topics.
