7th Phase Voting: Union Minister & BJP Candidate Anurag Thakur Urges Public To Cast Vote | LS Polls
All the four Lok Sabha seats in Himachal Pradesh where elections are to be held include Hamirpur, Mandi, Kangra and Shimla Lok Sabha seats. Apart from this, by-elections are being held in six assembly constituencies - Sujanpur, Dharamshala, Lahaul and Spiti, Barsar, Gagret and Kutlehar. The election campaign in the hill state, which was full of allegations and counter-allegations, ended on Thursday (May 30) with two rallies of Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath in Barsar and Mandi and a roadshow of Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi Vadra in Solan. In a last ditch effort to woo voters, leaders and workers of political parties are campaigning door-to-door across the state. The prestige of Vikramaditya Singh, son of six-time former Himachal Chief Minister Virbhadra Singh, and Kangana Ranaut is at stake in Mandi. BJP's Lok Sabha candidate from Mandi and Bollywood actress Kangana Ranaut and Congress candidate Vikramaditya Singh have been in the headlines due to controversial and sharp remarks made against each other. The prestige of Union Information and Broadcasting Minister and BJP candidate from Hamirpur Anurag Thakur is also at stake. He is contesting for the fifth time as a Member of Parliament from Hamirpur.
