Kangana Ranaut Attacks Tejasvi Surya Instead Of Tejashwi Yadav By Mistake
The Congress hit back at the actor-turned-politician by saying that she should check the facts about the leaders of the Bhartiya Janta Party
After having a fairly successful acting career, Kangana Ranaut has turned her focus on politics since she was announced as the Lok Sabha candidate from Himachal Pradesh's Mandi by the Bhartiya Janta Party. Kangana Ranaut was attending a public rally in the Sundernagar area of Mandi Parliamentary Constituency, where she took many shots aimed at the leaders of Congress. In her attempt to target Congress's Tejashwi Yadav, she ended up attacking her colleague Tejasvi Surya, who is the BJP's Lok Sabha candidate from the Bengaluru South constituency in Karnataka.

BJP has made her its candidate, who doesn't know the difference between Tejasvi Yadav and Tejasvi Surya ????#KanganaRanaut #TejasviSurya pic.twitter.com/YN0UvuplOi— Harsh Tiwari (@harsht2024) May 4, 2024
RJD leader and former Bihar deputy Chief Minister Tejashwi Yadav was supposed to be the original target of Kangana Ranaut, but the similarity in the names—Tejashwi and Tejasvi—led to her misunderstanding him as Tejasvi Surya. Tejashwi Yadav was seen eating fish in a video, and it became a major flashpoint between the BJP and the opposition recently. In an attempt to point that out, Kangana Ranaut said, "There is a party of spoiled princes like Rahul Gandhi, who wants to grow potatoes on the moon, or Tejasvi Surya, who does hooliganism and shows off while eating fish.".

This fumble has caused a massive uproar over the internet, as many are making fun of Kangana Ranaut for her mistake. Responding to one such troll, Tejashwi Yadav responded to the clip of the incident, saying, "Who is this lady?"

Kangana Ranaut has been very vocal in criticizing the Congress party ever since the BJP chose her as their Lok Sabha candidate from Himachal Pradesh's Mandi. Congress leaders Vikramaditya Singh—her opponent in Mandi—and Rahul Gandhi have been the main targets on her dartboard.
The Congress hit back at the actor-turned-politician by saying that she should check the facts about the leaders of the Bhartiya Janta Party and even questioned her qualifications, on which she got a BJP ticket from Mandi. The Mandi Lok Sabha constituency will go to the polls in the seventh phase of the Lok Sabha Elections 2024 on June 1.
