Mandi (Himachal Pradesh) [India], April 8 (ANI): BJP MP Kangana Ranaut on Tuesday attacked the Congress government in Himachal, alleging that the state was in bad condition and there is a need to rid it of the grip of "bhediyas" (wolves).
The actor-politician made the remarks while addressing a gathering in her parliamentary constituency Mandi.
She hailed the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
The BJP leader also took a dig at the Congress government on controversy over "samosa" probe in the state, which authorities later clarified, was against "misconduct" by officials and not concerning the snack meant to be served to the Chief Minister.
Kangana Ranaut, who is not unknown to controversy, sought to compare Congress government by referring to an attacking animal found in peninsular India.
"There is a wave of PM Modi in the entire country and saffron... But it is painful to watch Himachal Pradesh's condition... Their agencies are probing samosas. We feel embarrassed about what is happening... You work so hard on the ground, It is our responsibility that we have to take our state on the path of progress... I would say they are Bhediya (wolves) in a way. We have to free our state from their claws," she said.
Targeting the Congress-led UPA government, she said there was a period before 2014 when "news was about corruption, terror attacks and scams".
She said PM Modi has ushered all-round development of the country. (ANI)
