In a series of heated exchanges, Kangana Ranaut, the BJP candidate from Mandi, and Himachal Pradesh minister Vikramaditya Singh have been embroiled in a war of words. The controversy ignited when Ranaut, while campaigning in Manali, made derogatory remarks towards Singh and the Congress Party, employing terms like 'Bada Pappu' and 'Chhota Pappu' in reference to Singh and Rahul Gandhi. Singh retaliated by criticizing Ranaut's language and conduct, which he deemed unprecedented in the political discourse of Himachal Pradesh, and referred to her as a "controversy queen". The altercation has sparked reactions from both political figures and the public, with each side standing firm on their statements. The conflict also touched upon a "beef row", further intensifying the dispute.
