Ramdev Slams Kangana Ranaut's 'Generation Gutter' Remark, Urges BJP Action
Two famous people in India had a big argument.
Kangana Ranaut is an actress and a member of Parliament.
She called some young people a 'gutter,' which is a very mean thing to say.
Baba Ramdev, a famous yoga teacher, said that is wrong and a sign of a spoilt mind.
He asked about her own past and said her political party should take note.
Kangana explained that she meant young people who want freedom without taking responsibility.
She also questioned whether young protesters could afford the costs of fighting in court.
Ramdev reminded everyone that India's youth are strong and special.
Baba Ramdev criticized Kangana Ranaut for calling Gen Z the 'generation gutter,' calling it a sign of a 'spoilt mind.'
Ramdev questioned Kangana's qualifications, background and past, saying he does not want to talk about such people.
He urged members of her party, the BJP, to take note of her statement.
Kangana made the remark last month on Instagram, criticizing young people who flaunt independence and freedom without taking responsibility.
Kangana defended her comment, questioning whether student protesters could afford legal proceedings on their own.
