Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot on Sunday accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of making "false promises" and claimed the Congress party would not need to campaign to win elections if people start hearing his previous speeches now.

Addressing an election rally in Kolayat town in Bikaner district, Gehlot said people had high expectations from the prime minister but an environment of "fear, violence and hatred" was created in five years.

He said the Congress party's election manifesto was prepared after "consulting people from all walks of life".

"We do not impose anything on the people, like Prime Minister Narendra Modi did with his 'Mann ki Baat'."
