Mandi, March 29: Actor Kangana Ranaut, who is the BJP candidate from Mandi Lok Sabha seat in Himachal Pradesh, held a roadshow in the city to prepare for the upcoming Lok Sabha Elections 2024. The 'Queen' actress was warmly greeted as she waved to the gathered crowd during the event. "You can see the large gathering here. A lot of people have come here. They are all proud that the daughter of Mandi, the nationalist voice from Mandi will represent the constituency in this election," said the BJP Mandi candidate, ahead of her roadshows.
Kangana could be in for a challenge with Congress state President Pratibha Singh saying she is ready to contest from Mandi the seat that she won in a bypoll in 2021. Pratibha Singh on Thursday expressed her willingness to contest against Kangana Ranaut if directed by the top leadership of the Congress.
