Rao urged them to vote for BRS if they did not get the benefits promised by the Congress.

Harish Rao also asked voters to question Congress leaders coming to their villages for campaigning as to why they were not implementing their promises. Reiterating that he was ready to resign his MLA post if the Congress kept its promises by August 15, he said Revanth Reddy had failed to accept his challenge.

Stating that the BJP had done nothing for the State though the party was ruling the country for the last 10 years, he said voters in Dubbak had defeated BJP candidate M Raghunandan Rao as he failed to keep his promises.

The BRS would remain the sole voice for Telangana at the national level and in the State assembly, he said while addressing meetings in Veldurthi, Shivvampet. BRS candidate P Venkatrami Reddy, former MLA M Padma Devendar Reddy and others were present.
