• I was hit on the face, abused; I am safe but concerned about terrorism in Punjab: Kangana on CISF constable slapping her in Chandigarh

Newly-elected BJP MP Kangana Ranaut on Thursday was allegedly slapped by a CISF woman constable at the Chandigarh airport when she was on her way to Delhi.

The constable has been suspended and an FIR lodged against her, officials said.

The Central Industrial Security Force (CISF) constable allegedly assaulted Kangana while frisking her at the airport before she boarded her flight.

"Kangana was slapped," one of the actor's aides claimed.

"From what it appears, she was slapped for the Khalistani comments she made during the farmers' agitation but we do not know the whole incident yet," the aide said.

Kangana was elected to Lok Sabha from Mandi constituency in Himachal Pradesh where she defeated her nearest Congress rival by over 74,000 votes.
