In a surprising and unfortunate incident, a CISF woman constable, identified as LCT Kulwinder Kaur, has been suspended for slapping actress and BJP MP Kangana Ranaut. The incident took place at Chandigarh airport while Kangana was preparing to board a flight to New Delhi. According to a senior CISF officer, the altercation occurred after Kangana had cleared the security check and was heading towards the boarding gate. The constable involved claims that her actions were a response to derogatory remarks made by Kangana about the farmers’ protests.

Kaur stated, “Kangana said that the farmers are sitting there for Rs 100. Would she go and sit there? My mother was among those protesting when Kangana made this statement.” This statement appears to have been a significant trigger for the physical confrontation.In 2021, Kangana Ranaut faced severe backlash for labeling the Kisan Morcha as a “Khalistani movement” in a social media post. This comment sparked widespread criticism and led to an FIR being filed against her by the Delhi Sikh Gurdwara Management Committee (DSGMC) and the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD), among other groups. The constable’s reaction seems to have been influenced by these previous remarks.Following the incident, the CISF promptly suspended Kulwinder Kaur and filed a complaint at the local police station, seeking an FIR.

A senior CISF officer confirmed the establishment of a high-ranking inquiry committee to conduct a thorough investigation into the matter. This incident has garnered significant media attention and raised concerns about airport security protocols and personnel conduct. The CISF’s swift suspension of the constable and initiation of a detailed investigation highlight the seriousness with which they are treating the matter. The findings of the inquiry committee and the subsequent police investigation will be crucial in determining the appropriate consequences and implementing measures to prevent similar incidents in the future.
