“As far as my departure to Mumbai is concerned, this (Himachal Pradesh) is my ‘janmabhoomi’ and I will continue to serve people here. So, I am not going anywhere. Perhaps, someone else will have to pack their bags and leave," she added, as per ANI.

Ranaut, BJP's candidate from the Mandi constituency in Himachal Pradesh, attributed the party's election success to the credibility and assurance provided by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

As quoted by ANI, addressing the media, Ranaut said, “We fought this election in the name of Narendra Modi. It is the result of his credibility and his guarantee and the faith of people in him that we are going to form the government for the third time..."

The Mandi election was highly anticipated, showcasing a battle between two prominent candidates: Bollywood actor Kangana Ranaut and Vikramaditya Singh.

Representing Congress, Singh hails from a distinguished political family; his father, Virbhadra Singh, was a notable figure in Himachal Pradesh politics. This election thus represented more than just a political contest -- it was a confrontation between enduring legacy and contemporary charisma.
