Before the elections, Congress leaders had promised Rythu Bharosa, one tola of gold under Kalyana Lakshmi scheme and six guarantees. Who did they give all these to, the people asked, also asking the Congress leaders how they could move around freely without implementing the promises.

With the public mood changing from mere questioning to anger, the Congress leaders were forced to leave the spot. The cultural council artists, who were performing, also stopped the programme and left the spot.

Videos of the Congress leaders being grilled by the public on their broken promises went viral on social media.
