Kangana Ranaut on JNU violence: It is not a political issue and the goons shouldn’t be given national importance

Kangana Ranaut has commented on the recent attack in Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU), saying that JNU violence is not a political issue at all. She spoke about it while promoting her upcoming film ‘Panga’.

Kangana said, “JNU students are being investigated on the attack and I saw in this issue that there are two types of people there, AVBP and JNU which are two types of unions. I want to tell you that it is very common to have gang wars in colleges. When I was in Chandigarh, I used to stay in a girls’ hostel which also had a boys hostel. Minor crimes and even murder were very common there.”

Speaking about an incident, Kangana said, “Once a boy was about to get murdered inside our hostel gate but fortunately, he was saved by our manager. So I would like to say that people on both sides are injured and such gangs are run by very aggressive people, should they be made a national issue at all?”.

She also said that the goons shouldn’t be given national importance. She further said, “Take such people in police custody and give them four slaps to remove all their arrogance. Such goons are in every street, locality, and college, so do not make them a national issue, they are not worthy of any national issue.”

For the unversed, on Sunday i.e on January 5, a mob of masked goons entered the JNU campus in south Delhi and systematically targeted students in three hostels, unleashing mayhem with sticks, stones, and iron rods, hitting inmates and breaking windows, furniture and personal belongings.
