Ranaut on Thursday raked up a major row after she described the country’s independence in 1947 as “bheekh” and claimed that India attained freedom only after 2014 when the Modi-led government came to power. “Prime Minister should break his silence and tell the nation if he endorses the views of Ms Ranaut. If not, the government should take appropriate legal action against such people,” Sharma, a former union minister said on Twitter.

“Hon’ble @rashtrapatibhvn should immediately take back the Padma award given to Ms Ranaut. Psychiatric evaluation should be carried out before giving such awards so that such persons do not dishonour the nation and its heroes,” he said. Describing Kangana Ranaut’s remarks as “Shocking and oustrageous”, the depity leader of the Congress in the Rajya Sabha said, “Ms Kangana Ranaut’s statement heaping insult on the courageous freedom fighters led by Mahatma Gandhi, Nehru and Sardar Patel but also belittling the sacrifices of revolutionaries like Sardar Bhagat Singh, Chandrashekar Azad and several others.”

माननीय @rashtrapatibhvn को सुश्री रनौत को दिया गया पद्म पुरस्कार तुरंत वापस लेना चाहिए। इस तरह के पुरस्कार देने से पहले मानसिक मनोचिकित्सीय मूल्यांकन किया जाना चाहिए ताकि भविष्य में ऐसे व्यक्ति राष्ट्र और उसके नायकों का अपमान न करें।

Former Haryana chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda also criticised Ranaut and termed her remarks as “callous”. “Kangana Ranaut’s callous statement is an insult to India’s freedom struggle led by Gandhi ji and countless freedom fighters. Her statement is not at all acceptable and her Padmashri should be withdrawn,” he said on Twitter.
