An FIR has been registered against actor Kangana Ranaut in Mumbai on Tuesday following a complaint by members of the Sikh community for allegedly using derogatory language against them on social media, PTI reported.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The FIR was filed by Amarjeet Singh Sandhu, a 47-year-old Mumbai-based businessman, along with leaders of Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee (DSGMC) and Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD).
The complainants accused Ms Ranaut of \u201cintentionally and deliberately\u201d portraying the farmers\u2019 protest (Kisan Morcha) as a \u201cKhalistani\u201d movement and calling the Sikh community \u201cKhalistani terrorists\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cKhalistani terrorists may be arm twisting the government today\u2026 But let\u2019s not forget one woman\u2026 The only woman prime minister ne inn ko apni jooti ke neeche crush kiya tha (the only woman PM who crushed them under her shoes). No matter how much suffering she caused to this nation\u2026 she crushed them like mosquitoes at the cost of her own life\u2026 Lekin desh k tukde nahi hone diye (but she did not let the nation get divided),\u201d the controversial actor had posted on Instagram recently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The FIR was lodged at the suburban Khar police station a day after the complaint against the actor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ms Ranaut (34) was booked under section 295A (deliberate and malicious acts, intended to outrage religious feelings of any class by insulting its religion or religious beliefs) of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and further investigation was underway, an official told PTI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A delegation led by Mr Sirsa had met Maharashtra Home Minister Dilip Walse Patil and top officials of the Mumbai police and demanded action against Ms Ranaut.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
