Asatya par satya ki jeet hui hai and this is so funny and embarassing, kangana should have taken YouTube classes,” etc. 

The invitation extended to Kangana to perform the Ravan Dahan was symbolic, honouring the recent passage of the Women’s Reservation Bill. Lav Kush Ramleela Committee president, Arjun Singh, highlighted the significance of Kangana’s participation, emphasizing the importance of equal rights for women in all spheres of life.

He told PTI, “Be it a film star or a politician, every year we have a VIP grace our event. In the past, we have had former President Ram Nath Kovind and Prime Minister Narendra Modi do the honours. Among film stars, Ajay Devgn and John Abraham have been here. Last year, Prabhas did the Ravan Dahan. For the first time in 50 years of our event, it will be a woman who will do the Ravan Dahan.”

And further added, “Lav Kush Ramleela Committee also wants equal rights for women. Women's participation is increasing in every walk of life today, but there is still a long way to go. The bill will help in the development of the country and society,” he added.
