Lok Sabha Elections: Actor Kangana Ranaut and the Bharatiya Janata Party candidate from Mandi seat in Himachal Pradesh on Thursday launched a sharp attack on state minister Vikramaditya Singh and said that he cannot threaten her and send her back as it is not his ancestors' estate.


Son of former chief minister late Virbhadra Singh and state Congress chief Pratibha Singh, Himachal Public Works Minister Vikramaditya Singh is the frontrunner as the Congress' nominee for the Mandi Lok Sabha seat.


Addressing a rally in Manali assembly constituency falling under Mandi Parliament seat, Kangana said, "Yeh tumhare baap-dada ki riyasat nahin hai, ke tum mujhe dara, dhamka ke vapis bhej doge (This is not the estate of your father or grandfather that you will threaten me and send me back)," as quoted by news agency PTI


This is the new Bharat of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, where a small, poor boy who used to sell tea is the biggest hero and "pradhan sevak" of the people, she further stated. This comes after Vikramaditya Singh had dubbed Kangana "queen of controversies".


On Monday, Vikramaditya Singh had said that Kangana is a "queen of controversies" and questions will be raised on her statements given from time to time.


I Pray To Lord Ram To Give Her Wisdom, Says Vikramaditya Singh


Referring to Kangana's reported comments over beef-eating, Vikramaditya Singh had said, "I pray to Lord Ram to give her wisdom and hope she goes back pure from 'Dev Bhoomi' Himachal to Bollywood because she will not win the elections as she knows nothing about people of Himachal," as quoted by PTI.


'Bada Pappu' In Delhi, 'Chhota Pappu' In Himachal: Kangana's Jibe At Rahul Gandhi, Vikramaditya Singh 


Indirectly dubbing Congress leader Rahul Gandhi and Vikramaditya Singh as "Pappu", Kangana said there is one "Bada Pappu" in Delhi and the "Chhota Pappu" in Himachal says she eats beef. She asked why he is not showing the evidence of her consuming beef. "I follow ayurvedic and yogic lifestyle," she asserted.


Kangana termed Vikramaditya Singh as "ek number ka jhootha" (liar No. 1) and "paltubaaz" (one who repeatedly changes stance), and wondered what can be expected from him when "Bada Pappu" talks about destroying the "nari Shakti" (women power). "I have made my name in the film industry without the help of my father and mother... I want to join politics and serve the people," she said, as quoted by PTI. She asserted that politics is an expression of service and anyone from a king to a beggar is entitled to that expression.


The whole country is worshipping the daughters during the ongoing 'Navratras', but still there is no change in the Congress leaders' anti-women thoughts, she said.

Did Kangana Visit Manali During Worst Ever Monsoon Disaster: Vikramaditya Singh 


Reacting to Kangana's speech, Vikramaditya Singh said the kind of language and words his "elder sister Kangana Ranaut" today used for him, the Congress and Himachal Pradesh have never been used in "Devbhoomi" Himachal. "I would like to say that rather than using such a language, it would have been better if she would have talked about the issues of Manali," and asked whether she visited Manali even for one day during the worst ever monsoon disaster, as reported by PTI.


The Himachal Pradesh minister reiterated that he was present on ground zero at the time of disaster and detailed the works undertaken to restore normalcy in the area. "The people of Himachal have nothing to do with what you eat and what you drink in Mumbai. Please talk on issues, your vision, what you did during the disaster and what would be your role in the future," he added, as quoted by PTI.
