Ms Ranaut has already been reprimanded once after earlier remarks on the farmers' protests led to controversy, and a scathing attack from the Congress. A clarification accompanied that rebuke, which included a summons by party boss JP Nadda - that her comments do not represent the BJP's views.
This time, speaking to reporters in her Lok Sabha constituency of Mandi today, Ms Ranaut said the laws - rolled back by Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government in November 2021 after massive (and violent) nationwide agitations - "should be brought back...
