Shimla: As Kangana Ranaut launched her campaign for the Lok Sabha election 2024 in Himachal Pradesh’s Mandi, the actor tore into the Congress leadership citing the recent controversy that Congress spokesperson Supriya Shrinate stirred by her ‘unwitting’ comments on Kangana. The Congress could not accept her nomination from Mandi and started indulging in cheap politics, Kangana Ranaut said in her maiden rally.
“I was beyond happy after getting the nomination from the BJP. Who would not celebrate such a homecoming? Congress top leader Rahul Gandhi talks about ‘annihilating the shakti among the Hindus’. Their spokesperson used condemnable words about the women of Mandi. The same Mandi which has been named after Rishi Mandavya, where Rishi Parashar sat in tapasya, the place which organises the biggest Shivratri fair every year. But what else can be expected of them?” Kangana said.
This was Kangana Ranaut’s first public appearance in Mandi, her hometown from where she will be contesting the election. It was expected that she would address the recent controversy as the Election Commission has issued a showcause notice to Supriya Shrinate for her comment on Kangana which she deleted and claimed it was not posted by her. Supriya said her Instagram and Facebook accounts are handled by many people and it was posted without her knowledge.
