Amritsar: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MP Sunny Deol on Monday raked up a controversy when he suggested that nobody even comes close to him when it is about beating up someone. The Gurdaspur MP made the controversial comments when asked about the ongoing issues in his constituency in Punjab.

While addressing a public gathering in Sialkot, the actor-turned-politician said, "I have been told that state government employees harass people saying they elected the wrong person. I don't interfere in such trivial issues. I don't believe in making controversial remarks but everyone knows no one is better than me when it comes to beating up someone."

Yesterday, Sunny Deol was seen dancing with students at a college event in Gurdaspur, Punjab. He even delivered one of his most iconic dialogues - "Tareekh pe tareekh (one court date after another)" and "Dhai Kilo ka haath (the mighty hand)".

After delivering the iconic dialogues, the BJP MP said, "You guys are blessed that you guys have enough facilities.... not many people have the privileges that you may have," he says in Punjabi, adding that he owes everything to his parents. "Whatever your parents tell you, they do that for your good... you should always listen to them."

Sunny Deol recently came under fire for appointing writer Gurpreet Singh Palheri as his representative to look after his constituency. There were even posters spotted in his constituency that said the MP has been "missing" from his constituency and accused him of not giving 100 per cent of his new role.

Reacting to the posters, Sunny Deol said, "I have heard that my detractors are coming up with nonsensical things against me," the actor said in the video on the posters. "Opposition leaders should work for the welfare of people. I am also working to resolve the traffic congestion in the city. Wish you all a happy Lohri."
