Congress president Rahul Gandhi on Monday launched a scathing attack on Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao alleging dynasty politics in the state.

"There is family rule in Telangana. Only one family is ruling and is benefited. Neither the Prime Minister nor the Telangana CM have kept their promises for the poeple," Rahul Gandhi told a Self Help Group.

Rahul claimed that CM Rao and his family is running the government in Telangana and availing its benefits while the common man was suffering.

He also accused PM Modi of keeping mum on the rising atrocities against women.

Rahul Gandhi was in Telangana for a two-day tour. The state is scheduled to go to polls next year.

His visit to the state is being seen as a run up to the election.

In Telangana, Rahul Gandhi's interaction with the students in Osmania University was rejected. A bike rally and road show later, too, were not permitted because of security concerns.
