BRS working president KT Rama Rao and a few other leaders were likely to attend the meeting. It may be noted that Jaganmohan Reddy had called Rama Rao soon after learning about Chandrashekhar Rao’s surgery and wished for his speedy recovery.

Chandrashekhar Rao, who underwent a hip replacement surgery last month, is recovering steadily and is able to walk with the help of a walker. Apart from medication, he is regularly undergoing physiotherapy. His health is being regularly monitored by a team of doctors from Yashoda Hospitals. Sources said there was good progress and that he was expected to walk using a walking stick from next week.
