Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP Kangana Ranaut on Wednesday hit out at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, saying that he makes women uncomfortable.

“Hum mahilao ko unko dekhkar bohot hi zyada uncomfotable feel hota hai... ekdum jaise tapori ki tarah wo aate hain... aur kisi ko bhi ae tu aise karke tu-tadak karte hain... koi interview de raha ho toh unko wo hooting calls karte hain (We women feel very uncomfortable seeing him... he comes like a vagabond... and refers to anyone disrespectfully... if someone is giving an interview, he makes hooting calls)," Kangana Ranaut said on Wednesday.

She further asked Rahul Gandhi to refer to the conduct of his sister, Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, which she said was “very good”.

“It is very uncomfortable the way he conducts himself. He should look at his sister, her conduct and behaviour are very good, and she has proper etiquette,” she said, calling the leader of opposition a “shame”.

Her comments came after a group of 84 former bureaucrats, 116 veterans and four lawyers wrote an open letter asking the leader of opposition in Lok Sabha to apologise over the incident of him having tea and biscuits at the Makar Dwar entrance to Parliament.

Led by the former Jammu and Kashmir DGP SP Vaid, the signatories stated that the March 12 incident was "deeply concerning" and reflected "conscious disregard for parliamentary authority."

Speaking with ANI, SP Vaid said that Rahul Gandhi's behaviour in Parliament is not becoming of a Leader of the Opposition and shows a "sense of entitlement and arrogance".

"84 former bureaucrats, 116 veterans and former lawyers have addressed this letter to the public stating that Rahul Gandhi's behaviour in Parliament is not becoming of a Leader of the Opposition, which is a very responsible post. His behaviour shows a sense of entitlement and arrogance. He indulges in theatrics; he sits on the steps of the Parliament and sips tea amid slogannering. I think Rahul Gandhi does not understand the importance of the post of LoP," he said.

He demanded an apology from Rahul Gandhi, urging him to fulfil the role of a responsible LoP.
