Kajol recently found herself in hot waters when she said in an interview that people of this country are ruled by uneducated politicians with no vision. As soon as her interview went viral on social media, ‘bhakts’ took offense of Kajol’s statement. ‘Bhakt’ is a term coined by online users to describe the supporters of Prime Minister Narendra Modi for their blind devotion or unquestioning loyalty.
The actress has now broken her silence over the outrage on social media and clarified her stance. “I was merely making a point about education and its importance. My intention was not to demean any political leaders, we have some great leaders who are guiding the country on the right path,” she tweeted.

In her recent interview with The Quint, Kajol spoke about women empowerment in the country and said that change in India is very very slow because the people are steeped in our traditions and thought processes including the lack of proper education.

“You have political leaders who do not have an educational system background. I’m sorry but I’m going to go out and say that. I’m being ruled by leaders, so many of them, who do not have that viewpoint which I think education does give you at least the chance to look out for a different viewpoint,” Kajol had said.
Amid the outrage, Kajol’s statement also drew reaction from Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Priyanka Chaturvedi who took a dig at the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) over the controversy.
“So Kajol says we are governed by leaders who are uneducated and have no vision. Nobody outraging since its her opinion not necessarily a fact and also has named nobody but all Bhakts are outraged. Please don’t Yale your Entire Political Science knowledge,” she tweeted.
