Chandigarh: A special court of Punjab’s Bathinda district has directed the Bollywood actor and BJP MP from Himachal Pradesh’s Mandi seat to appear in person on December 15 in the 2021 defamation case filed by an elderly woman farmer.
The directions came on Thursday after Kangana skipped the hearing informing the court that she was engaged in the ongoing Lok Sabha session and the special court of judicial magistrate 1st class (JMIC) Inderjeet Singh, designated to handle cases against MPs and MLAs, directed her to remain present in the next hearing – December 15, 2025. The court recorded the statements of complainant Kaur, who arrived in a wheelchair.
The defamation case was filed in 2021 by an elderly farmer Mahinder Kaur, a resident of Bahadurgarh Jandian village of Bathinda district alleging that Kangana had defamed her in a post (in 2020) on social media wrongly identifying her as a Shaheen Bagh protester, Bilkis Bano, and alleging that such women were available for Rs 100 to join protests.
