Congress leader Vijayashanti Saturday hit out at Prime Minister Narendra Modi, alleging he was ruling like a dictator, making people fear 'what bomb he will explode when",an allusion to measures like demonetisation.

The veteran actress, who was speaking ata party meeting presided by AICC president Rahul Gandhi, said the coming Lok Sabha elections was essentially a battle between Narendra Modi and Gandhi.

Gandhi was fighting for the survival of democracy, while Modi has "ruled like a dictator" during his tenure in a way that killed democracy and troubled the people, the former MP said.

"He wants to rule like that in the next five years, but people will not give him that opportunity,"she said in Telugu.

"Everybody is scared about the BJP today... they are scared as to what bomb Modi ji will explode when....Appearing like a terrorist," she said.

"Instead of blessing the people, (he is) making people fear. This should not be aim of a Prime Minister."
She said a vote for the TRS would go to BJP as "Modi and TRS president K Chandrasekhar Rao are one."
