This comes days after a Judicial Magistrate (First Class) Court in Tumakuru, Karnataka had directed the state police to register an FIR against Ranaut.

The FIR has been registered under the Sections 44 (Injury), 108 (Abettor), 153 (Wantonly giving provocation with intent to cause riot), 153(A) (Promoting enmity between different groups on grounds of religion, race, place of birth, residence, language, etc., and doing acts prejudicial to maintenance of harmony) , 504 (Intentional insult with intent to provoke breach of the peace) under the Indian Penal Code, 1860 (IPC) against Kangana for her tweet which reads as follows:

People who spread misinformation and rumours about CAA that caused riots are the same people who are now spreading misinformations about Farmers bill and causing terror in the nation, they are terrorists. You very well know what I said but simply like to spread misinformation https://t.co/oAnBTX0Drb

The FIR, originally in Kannada, refers to the allegations made by Advocate Ramesh Naik who stated that Kangana’s tweet termed the farmers who were protesting the Farmers Bills passed by the Parliament as “terrorists”. The complaint also alleged that she had the motive of inciting riots and disturbing the peace prevailing in the society.

The said tweet has hurt the sentiments of lakhs of farmers. These kind of statements by the celebrities will instigate enmity between different groups of society and will lead to untoward incidents, which will spoil the peace and tolerance prevailing in the society, the FIR states.

The FIR further stated that the investigation into the issue has begun.

Naik had moved a complaint seeking registration of an FIR against Ranaut for her tweet on farmers opposing the Farmers Bills passed in the Lok Sabha.
