BJP has already announced the name of Kangana Ranaut, an actress from the Mandi constituency. She is campaigning vigorously and trying to reach all doors source says. Congress party was in the doldrums with the name, first asked widow of late Virbhadra Singh’s wife Pratibha Singh to contest source says. She is also the state president of the Congress party. She politely declined and pushed forward the name of her son and now King after the late Virbhadra Singh to contest source says. Some days back Vikramaditya Singh was said to be behind the cross-voting in the Rajya Sabha elections source says. Congress high command perhaps thought of an opportunity to quell the rebellion in the party and agreed to nominate the minister in the present state government, Vikramaditya Singh, to contest, a source says. Mandi always remained loyal to the King family and the entry of one actress in the fray created the interest of all to see the results source says.
