Exit Poll Predicts 'Queen' Kangana's Reign In Mandi

In what could be a significant upset for the Congress in Himachal Pradesh, a state it wrested from the BJP last year, Bollywood actor-turned-politician Kangana Ranaut of the BJP could defeat Vikramaditya Singh, son of the late Virbhadra Singh, a six-time Chief Minister of Himachal Pradesh, in Mandi.

However, in the by-election for the Mandi Lok Sabha seat in 2021, Vikramaditya Singh's mother, Pratibha Singh, managed to win the seat for the Congress.
