NEW DELHI: The Lok Sabha on Wednesday witnessed a fiery and impassioned intervention from BJP MP and acclaimed film actress Kangana Ranaut, who mounted a strong defence of the Special Intensive Revision (SIR) of voter lists.
Speaking during the debate on electoral reforms on Wednesday, the Mandi MP dismissed opposition allegations of “vote chori” as baseless propaganda, arguing that the exercise was essential both to safeguard women’s dignity in the digital age and to cleanse electoral rolls of infiltrators and fraudulent entries.
Reflecting on her own experience in Parliament, Ranaut described the past year as deeply troubling. “Every day has been a spectacle; we have been intimidated, threatened, and subjected to relentless attacks from the opposition members. We come here to learn and contribute, but they rarely allow us to proceed, ” she said.
