Chennai: Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao is to meet DMK president MK Stalinon Monday. The meeting is to be held on Stalinon’s residence in Chennai at 4 pm .

Stalin has agreed to meet KCR days after he decided to not meet the Telangana CM citing campaign commitments for the bye-elections to four constituencies in Tamil Nadu on May 19.

 The meeting is seen as an attempt by the Telangana Rashtra Samiti (TRS) chief to seek support from Stalin to forge a 'Federal Front' - without the BJP and Congress - after the declaration of result.

DMK is an ally of Congress and the party had tried to downplay the meeting between KCR and Stalin as a ‘courtesy’ call. It may be recalled that Stalin was the first leader to say that Congress President Rahul Gandhi deserves to be the next prime minister of India.
