At a rally in Kullu ahead of the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, BJP candidate Kangana Ranaut sparked controversy with her statement, “Indians should not have their own identity, we are all Narendra Modi.”
Ranaut, running for the Mandi constituency in Himachal Pradesh, emphasized PM Narendra Modi’s influence on the national psyche, urging supporters to align exclusively with his vision. She proclaimed, “We should not maintain any separate identity. We are all Narendra Modi.”
Declaring her unwavering support for the BJP, Ranaut asserted that since joining the party, she no longer maintains an individual identity and now identifies solely with the BJP. She reiterated, “We are all unified.”
Earlier in the day, Ranaut addressed various allegations against her, including critiques of her dietary preferences and attacks on her character. She also defended her controversial assertion regarding Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose being India’s first Prime Minister.
In recent confrontations, Ranaut clashed with Congress candidate Vikramaditya Singh, dismissing his efforts to intimidate her.
