A CISF Constable slapped Bollywood Actress Kangana Ranaut
CISF constable, Kulwinder Kaur, was suspended after allegedly slapping BJP MP-elect Kangana Ranaut
On Thursday a woman CISF constable posted at the Chandigarh Airport on Thursday allegedly slapped Kangana Ranaut, Bollywood actor and BJP’s MP-elect from Himachal Pradesh’s Mandi.
The provocation behind the alleged slapping incident is believed to be Kangana’s controversial comments on Punjabi women who were part of the farmers’ protest. In a video purportedly showing the constable after the alleged incident, the woman can be heard saying her mother was also among the protesters.
Kulwinder Kaur has been suspended with immediate effect.
The 35-year-old constable, who is from Sultanpur Lodhi in Punjab, has been posted at Chandigarh Airport for the last two years.
Her husband is also a personnel with the CISF.
Her brother, Sher Singh, is a farmer leader and is the organisation secretary of the Kisan Mazdoor Sangharsh Committee.
Kulwinder Kaur has two children.
She has been detained, and the CISF has formed a panel to investigate the alleged incident.
Ranaut alleged that while she was waiting to pass the CISF officer, the officer came towards her and hit her in the face.
“When I completed the security check and was waiting to pass the woman security officer, she came towards me, hit me, and started abusing me. When I asked why she did it, she said she supports the farmers,” Ranaut said in a video message after the incident.
