Kangana Ranaut, the BJP Lok Sabha contestant from Mandi in Himachal Pradesh, on April 8 dismissed allegations that she eats beef. Congress leader Vikramditya Singh has meanwhile crowned her “queen of controversy”.
Ms. Ranaut denied that she eats beef or red meat, saying baseless rumours were being spread about her. She wrote on ‘X’, “I don’t eat beef or any other kind of red meat, it is shameful that completely baseless rumours are being spread about me. I have been advocating and promoting a yogic and Ayurvedic way of life for decades now, such tactics to tarnish my image won’t work. My people know me, and they know that I am a proud Hindu, and nothing can ever mislead them, Jai Shri Ram.”
