Following Mandi MP Kangana Ranaut’s call for the reinstatement of the three farm laws and her subsequent retracting of her statement, Congress leader Rahul Gandhi has demanded clarification from Prime Minister Narendra Modi regarding the government’s position on the legislation.
Taking to X, Rahul Gandhi said “Who is deciding the government’s policy? A BJP MP or Prime Minister Modi?” Thus, questioning whether the Prime Minister supports revival of the repealed laws and later, emphasized that the opposition bloc, known as INDIA, would unite to fight against any such revival.
“Even after the martyrdom of more than 700 farmers, especially the farmers of Haryana and Punjab, the BJP people are not satisfied. INDIA will not allow any conspiracy of BJP against our farmers to succeed – If any step is taken to harm the farmers, Modi ji will have to apologize again.” said Rahul Gandhi.
सरकार की नीति कौन तय कर रहा है? एक भाजपा सांसद या प्रधानमंत्री मोदी?
700 से ज़्यादा किसानों, खास कर हरियाणा और पंजाब के किसानों की शहादत ले कर भी भाजपा वालों का मन नहीं भरा।
INDIA हमारे अन्नदाताओं के विरुद्ध भाजपा का कोई भी षडयंत्र कामयाब नहीं होने देगा – अगर किसानों को नुकसान… pic.twitter.com/ekmHQq6y5D

Further, she also compared the push for these laws to the proposed “One Nation, One Election” initiative, stating that just as it would benefit bureaucrats, farmers should also advocate for their development through these laws.
As a result, it generated backlash from farmer unions and political parties. Later, Kangana Ranaut retracted her statement, asserting that her views should not contradict the party’s stance.
