DMK President MK Stalin-K Chandrasekhar Rao Meeting On May 13 Uncertain

Chennai: Uncertainty prevails on the proposed meeting between Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao and DMK President MK Stalin on May 13 as the latter is yet to confirm the former's request, say DMK officials. Rao is trying to form a non-Congress, non-BJP grouping of political parties. The initial response of the DMK to Rao's proposal is lukewarm.

Stalin is also busy with the campaign for the upcoming May 19 by-elections for four Tamil Nadu Assembly constituencies. According to DMK officials, no confirmation has been communicated to Rao for the May 13 meeting proposed by him. “It was Stalin who had proposed Congress President Rahul Gandhi's name for the Prime Minister’s post and continues to stick to that. On the other hand, Rao is trying to promote a non-BJP, non-Congress front,” a DMK leader said. (IANS)
