BJP’s Lok Sabha candidate from Mandi, Kangana Ranaut, on Monday rejected a Congress leader’s allegation that she once ate beef, saying she’s a “proud Hindu”. Taking to X, the actor-turned-politician said, “I don’t consume beef or any other kind of red meat, it is shameful that completely baseless rumours are being spread about me”. “I have been advocating and promoting yogic and Ayurvedic way of life for decades now such tactics won’t work to tarnish my image. My people know me and they know that I am a proud Hindu and nothing can ever mislead them, Jai Shri Ram,” she added.
