Union Minister of State for Home Bandi Sanjay Kumar on Wednesday alleged that there was a sharp increase in crime against women in Telangana under the Congress rule.

He also slammed the Congress leaders for their “false” claims that their government in the state implemented promises made to women.

The BJP leader was reacting to the claim made by Congress spokesperson Supriya Shrinate that the Telangana government is giving Rs 2,500 per month to 90 lakh women.
