The 'freedom in alms one ' is actually the least problematic comment she makes here
https://youtu.be/uy0dsIGbHNc
She dodges the question about Savarkar and starts rambling . Says the British allowed an Islamic Republic to be formed while leaving India ( Don't, even for a moment ,think she's upset about the violence during partition ) . Then she says secularism is no man's land. Implying people in a country have to fight for dominance along the lines of religion . She didn't like the idea of Muslims having a country of their own but she also wants Indians to get rid of secularism to make way for a Hindu Rashtra. The anchor doesn't question that contradiction because she's been peddling the same agenda through her 'news ' channel.
I have the opinion that India never fully gained independence. That we colonised ourselves after the British left. That's a long discussion anf I wouldn't want anybody to take this literally and accuse me of sedition . Even though we can't agree with the insensitive things she's actually trying to say here ,on principle we are going to have to support her 'right' to use the alms metaphor because filing charges against her for that and calling it sedition would be playing into the hands of people like her and her patrons who constantly harass those who criticise the ones in power, using sedition as an excuse.
Where sedition matters is when people who go after Aamir or Tapsee or Swara ( or any writer or activist who gets summoned) let Kangana get away with this. She should be called out on her double standards.
