Senior Congress leader Ghulam Nabi Azad Sunday accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi and TRS chief K Chandrasekhar Rao of making tall promises and not keeping any of them.

Addressing a public rally here, Azad said the TRS supported BJP in passing several bills in the Parliament and on many issues.

"The Prime Minister and as his younger brother (Rao) lambi lambi phekthe hain (make tall promises) and they did not fullfill them," Azad alleged.

Azad attacked Rao over his promise to make a Dalit the Chief Minister of Telangana and promising 12 per cent reservation to Muslims.

Alleging that Rao was running the government from his farm house, the Congress leader said, "No Chief Minister runs the government from a farm house. Every Chief Minister runs the government from Secretariat.

Vote out the Chief Minister who runs the government from a farm house."
Asserting that the alliance of Congress, TDP, CPI and TJS would form governments in both Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, he said, "We will all together form government and carry out developmental works."
Alleging that the women in the country were unsafe, he said, "rape cases (incidents) under Modi government have increased."
