Speaking to the media here on Tuesday, Minister Ponnam Prabhakar clarified that he along with Congress MLAs and leaders from the district had participated in the nomination programme of Rajender Rao on the instructions of the party high command and the official announcement in this regard would be made shortly.

The Minister said that after the first phase of election, Prime Minister Narendra Modi understood the situation that the BJP would not come to power at the Centre for the third term and accused the Prime Ministe of stoking atmosphere of fear.

"Narendra Modi is not in a position to say what he did during 10 years of BJP rule. Unfortunately, the Prime Minister, who should lead the country, is disrupting the sovereignty and trying to create a divide between two religions in a peaceful country," Ponnam said.

He also stated that the Supreme Court should take Narendra Modi's inflammatory remarks as Suo Motu and should issue orders in this regard.
