Former MP Simranjit Singh Mann talking to reporters in Karnal and Kangana Ranaut reacting to it.
Former Punjab Lok Sabha MP Simranjit Singh Mann has made an objectionable statement about Bollywood actress and Himachal Pradesh BJP MP Kangana Ranaut. Mann has said that Kangana Ranaut has a lot of experience of rape, we can ask her how rape happens? Mann will speak on Thursday
,
Haryana State Women Commission has taken cognizance of this statement of Mann. The commission has sent a summon to the former MP. It has also ordered him to publicly apologize and give a written explanation within 5 days.
Let us tell you that Kangana Ranaut had said in an interview to 'Dainik Bhaskar' a few days ago that rapes were committed during the farmers' protest on the Delhi border. Mann's statement is being considered in relation to that.
At the same time, Kangana is also in controversy these days regarding the film 'Emergency' made on former PM Indira Gandhi. Regarding this, the Sikh community alleges that the image of Sikhs is being tarnished by presenting the character of Sant Jarnail Singh Bhindranwale in a wrong way.
On this, Kangana Ranaut said, 'I am getting rape threats that Kangana knows what rape is. They cannot suppress my voice in this way.'
Read the media's questions and Mann's answers….
Simranjit Singh Mann was asked that Kangana Ranaut had given a statement that if there was no BJP government at the center, then during the farmers' movement, the condition of Punjab would have been the same as that of Bangladesh.
In response to this, Mann said- “Kangana Ranaut has a lot of experience of rape. We can ask her further how rape happens? People should be explained.
Mann was asked how Kangana Ranaut experiences rape?
In response to this, Mann said- Just like when you ride a bicycle, you get experience of riding a bicycle. He has experience of rape.
Mann was again asked if he was talking about Kangana Ranaut. To this Mann said that of course, he was talking about Kangana Ranaut.
Kangana said- rape is compared to riding a bicycle
After Simarjit Singh Mann's statement, Kangana said, 'It seems that this country will never stop trivializing rape. Today this senior leader compared rape to riding a bicycle, no wonder rape and violence against women for fun is so deeply rooted in the psyche of the nation that it is used to tease or make fun of women, even if it is a big film director or a leader.'
Kangana Ranaut said that the film Emergency is about to be released. We have received the certificate from the censor board. Many people created a ruckus over it. The issues with the censor board are still going on, we hope that the film will be released. History cannot be changed by intimidation and threats. 30-35 bullets were fired at a 17-year-old girl. The bullets did not fire from the sky. How she died, all this has to be shown.
Some people have put guns on the foreheads of artists to suppress their voices. We are not going to be scared of all these things.
had called martyr Bhagat Singh a terrorist
Simranjit Mann has given controversial statements earlier too. Two years ago in Karnal, he had called Shaheed Bhagat Singh a terrorist. Mann had said that Sardar Bhagat Singh had killed an English youth, an officer and an Amritdhari Sikh constable.
A bomb was thrown in the National Assembly. Please tell me whether Bhagat Singh is a terrorist or a Bhagat. Killing innocent people and throwing a bomb in the Parliament is a matter of decency. Whatever may be the case, Bhagat Singh is a terrorist.
Simranjit Mann won the by-election from Sangrur seat in 2022. Then he got victory due to voting in his favor due to the displeasure of the AAP government of Punjab after the murder of Punjabi singer Sidhu Moosewala. He was also a candidate in 2024 but lost the election.
He had confessed to giving Sirope to General Dyer
There was a political uproar after Mann called Bhagat Singh a terrorist. Opposition parties had alleged that his maternal grandfather Arun Singh had honoured General Dyer, who fired bullets at people in Amritsar's Jallianwala Bagh, by giving him a Siropa. In response to this, Mann had said that if his maternal grandfather had not calmed General Dyer's anger, he would have thrown a bomb at Harmandir Sahib. Which would have been a big thing for the Sikhs.
Mann had said that the British principal of Khalsa College at that time had told my grandfather that General Dyer was going to drop a bomb on Jallianwala Bagh. At that time, the bombs were not so perfect that they would fall exactly where they were aimed. This could have caused damage to Sri Harmandir Sahib. That is why he gave Dyer a Siropa.
