Former BJP MP Navneet Kaur Rana Receives Disturbing Gang-Rape Threat, Sparks Outrage
Former BJP MP Navneet Kaur Rana has recently been at the center of a shocking incident after receiving a gang-rape threat. The letter, signed by an individual identifying himself as Aamir, also demanded a ransom of Rs 10 crore and included the slogan "Pakistan Zindabad." The threat used offensive language against Rana and made derogatory remarks about her husband, Ravi Rana, an independent MLA from Badnera. The shocking incident has led to Ravi Rana's personal assistant, Vinod Guhe, filing a police complaint with Rajapeth authorities in Amravati, sparking widespread outrage.
Who Is Navneet Rana?
Navneet Kaur Rana is an Indian politician and former actress, best known for her work in Telugu cinema. She entered politics and rose to prominence after being elected as the Member of Parliament (MP) for Amravati in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections as an independent candidate. Despite her initial success, in the 2024 elections, Rana ran as a BJP candidate but lost her seat to Congress candidate Balwant Wankhede, marking a significant shift in her political journey.
Controversies in the Past
Navneet Rana is no stranger to controversy. On May 8, during a rally in Hyderabad, she responded fiercely to AIMIM Chief Akbaruddin Owaisi's statement about balancing the Hindu-Muslim ratio in India within 15 minutes. Rana fired back, stating, “If they will take 15 minutes, we will take 15 seconds,” a statement that stirred widespread debate.
In another controversial remark on May 5, while campaigning in Gujarat ahead of the Lok Sabha elections, she declared, “Those who don’t want to chant Jai Shree Ram can go to Pakistan. This is Hindustan. If you want to live in Hindustan, you must say Jai Shree Ram,” which further fueled discussions about religious and political divisions in India.
Navneet Rana's political career has been marked by bold statements and strong reactions, and this recent threat adds another layer of complexity to her public life.
