As rains wreaked havoc in Himachal Pradesh after cloudbursts hit Mandi, Kullu and Shimla district, BJP MP took to X urging people “to pray for the state”.

She wrote: “As the devastating floods, clouds bursts, and landslides capture Mandi and various parts of Himachal, many have died and many more are missing. I spoke to the MLA’s and DC’s of flood affected areas they advised me not to travel to Himachal right now because of red and orange alert in various places. I suggest the same to everyone in and around Himachal Pradesh please stay at home and please stay safe till the situation gets better. Pray for Himachal Pardesh.”

Soon Kangana was flooded with replies asking her “if Rahul and Priyanka Gandhi can visit Wayanad, irrespective of the advisory and risking their lives to help the ones affected, why couldn’t she”.

Rahul and Priyanka Gandhi are visiting Wayanad, irrespective of the advisory and risking their lives to help the ones affected, and look how Kattar Hindu Sherni Kangana is scared by an advisory.

No wonder you rode a fake horse while playing Rani laxmi bai’s character.
