She even faced black flags and slogans of “go back” as her motorcade passed through some of the wrecked areas during the day.

Heated arguments were witnessed when BJP leaders, including former MP minister Govind Thakur, accompanying Kangana, tried to pacify the residents.

The police also had to intervene and advise the angry residents to show restraint and talk patiently.

The videos of affected families expressing their anger against Ranaut’ late visit have also gone viral, as she was also heard pleading to the people to attack her on the pretext of posing questions.
