The meeting assumes significance as the general strike in Telangana region entered the 27th day today amid indications that the agitation would be intensified in the coming days. The Governor is also understood to have briefed the Prime Minister about the situation in the Telangana region, where life has come to a standstill for the past 26 days. However, there was no official word on what transpired at the meeting.
The meeting came as Chief Minister N Kiran Kumar Reddy and Deputy Chief Minister Damodar Rajanarasimha arrived here for consultations with the Central leadership.
