This is the third time Mumbai Police has asked Kangana and her sister to appear before the Bandra Police
Mumbai police on Wednesday issued a fresh notice to Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut and her sister Rangoli Chandel to appear before the Bandra police. Kangana has been asked to appear on 23 November and Rangoli on 24 November at Bandra Police Station for making objectionable remarks on social media with the aim of spreading communal tension. This is the third time Mumbai Police has asked Kangana and her sister to appear before the Bandra Police in this case.
Earlier, on 26-27 October and again on 9 and 10 November, she did not appear. Kangana had told the police that her family is married and she can appear after November 15. The Bandra Police had on 21 October issued the first notice to record Kangana and her sister in the case. Kangana’s lawyer sent a reply to the notice, stating that Kangana is currently in Himachal Pradesh and busy with her cousin’s wedding preparations. The Bandra police then asked the duo to come to the police station on November 9 and 10 to record their statements in the case, but even then she did not appear.

This complaint was made about the alleged statements of Kangana and her sister. Subsequently, the Bandra Police filed sections 153-A (not promoting hatred between different groups on the basis of different religions), 295-A (intentionally committing acts that hurt religious sentiments), 124-A (sedition) against the two sisters. ), 34 (Shared Intent). The police also asked the actress and her sister to appear before the police.
