Hyderabad: Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao who is currently on a nation-wide trip to meet several Opposition leaders in an attempt to set an alternative national agenda, held discussions with his Delhi counterpart and Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal at the latter’s residence on Sunday. The meeting assumes significance in the wake of building political equations ahead of the Presidential elections in a few months as well as the 2024 Lok Sabha polls to challenge the BJP.

During an hour-long luncheon meeting, the two leaders have reportedly discussed a wide range of issues including the current national politics, federal structure, States’ contribution in India’s growth, the Central government’s policies and other issues. They are learnt to have reached a consensus on several issues of common interest and decided to work to bring together like-minded forces to evolve an alternative national agenda.
