Kangana Ranaut's Farmer Post Row: A Study in Free Speech and Public Sensitivity
Public sensitivity is crucial to avoid public outrage, as seen in the incident involving Kangana Ranaut and her "100 rupees" comment about the farmers' protest.
Ranaut tweeted about the protest, sharing a photo of Mahinder Kaur, an elderly farmer from Bhatinda, and allegedly remarked that women like her are available for 100 rupees.
Kangana Ranaut's comment sparked a fiery debacle, leading to a defamation complaint filed by Mahinder Kaur in January 2021.
- In 2022, a Bhatinda judicial court summoned Kangana Ranaut to appear.
- Ranaut attempted to quash the complaint, but the high court intervened, stating it had "no merit".
This incident highlights the importance of considering public sensitivity in free speech.
