			=== Pahalgam terror attack controversy ===
			On May 24, 2025, during an event in [[Bhiwani]], Haryana, commemorating the 300th birth anniversary of [[Ahilyabai Holkar]], Jangra commented on the [[Pahalgam]] terror attack of April 22, 2025, which killed 26 civilians, including 25 Indian tourists and one Nepali national in [[Jammu and Kashmir (union territory)\|Jammu and Kashmir]].
