What Devoleena said

In a new X-post, Devoleena said, “It is deeply disturbing to learn about the incident involving Kangana Ranaut and a CISF officer during a security check. Such actions are a serious breach of public trust and security protocols. A serving officer should never allow personal grudges to interfere with his professional duties. This incident raises significant concerns for the safety of all citizens when personal vendetta is exercised in this manner.”

She continued, “To support the actions of this CISF officer is to justify a crime and spread unnecessary hatred. It is important to remember that condoning such behavior sets a dangerous precedent and potentially enables others to seek personal revenge under the guise of authority. We must collectively condemn this act and ensure that those in power are held accountable.”

The actor also said: “I urge everyone to think about how they would feel if a similar incident happened to their loved ones. This is not just about one individual, but about the standards of conduct we expect from those entrusted with our safety. Let us stand up for justice, impartiality and a system where personal bias has no place in our security forces.”

In a separate post, she wrote: “This is not just a slap in the face. It is about India’s security. It can be more dangerous than one thinks. Nothing less than a security threat should be treated as such.”
