Kangana Ranaut demands for Chief Minister suite in Maharashtra Sadan; sparks political controversy: reports

Newly elected BJP MP from Himachal Pradesh’s Mandi, Kangana Ranaut, recently made it to the news for her unusual  request following her oath as a Member of Parliament. The actress- turned – politician is currently lodged in Delhi to attend the parliamentary session and is staying at Maharashtra Sadan. However, as per a report in News18 Marathi, Kangana did not settle for a simple room, rather she demanded Chief Minister suite.

This request has apparently ignited a political row, with Shiv Sena (UBT) MP Sanjay Raut taking to X, formerly known as Twitter, to sarcastically suggest that the Queen actress must be accommodated in a large suit at Rashtrapati Bhavan, if she considered herself that important. The Shiv Sena leader explained in Marathi that the standard protocol for newly elected MPs is to temporarily accommodate them in the state houses or sadans specific with the states they represent until permanent housing is arranged.

As per the reports by IANS, Congress ex-minister Yashomati Thakur weighed in, suggesting that Kangana’s ignorance of parliamentary protocols might explain her unusual request.
