After actress Kangana Ranaut was banned on Twitter, the actress often takes to Instagram Stories to share her opinion about current topics. The actress on Tuesday said from ancient times, kings have disguised themselves to know about 'antisocial elements'. She also cited an example from the Ramayana. The actress also clarified that she's not talking about the alleged spyware Pegasus which is claimed to have private phones of selected people in the country.

“Even in ancient times greatest kings used to disguise and secretly visit the remotest parts of their country, people and their homes to know to hear what their subjects talking or discussing, this exercise is a part of administration, biggest example is in Ramayana, during one such visit lord Rama got to know about Maa Sita’s perception among general people when he heard them secretly,” she wrote.

“No big deal if the king wants to know about antisocial element’s whereabouts or general issues of people and their mindset ....it is his right, prerogative and business to keep his eyes and ears open.... So hyenas stop crying foul and No I am not talking about #pegasus Ha ha ha,” she added.
