Jagan calls on Rosaiah

HYDERABAD:Congress MP Y.S. Jaganmohan Reddy, son of former Chief Minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy, called on Chief Minister K. Rosaiah at the latter's camp office on Tuesday night, putting an end to speculation over their alleged differences.
It was after a gap of close to four months that Mr. Jagan came face to face with the Chief Minister. He was accompanied by Advisor to Government (Public Affairs) K.V.P. Ramachandra Rao, a close aide of the late Rajasekhara Reddy. His meeting with Mr. Rosaiah comes ahead of his ‘Vodarpu' (Consoling) programme to call on the families of persons who died or committed suicide on hearing the death of Rajasekhara Reddy in a helicopter crash last September. The Kadapa MP is stated to have briefed him about his proposed tour from April 9.
Sources said the meeting was significant as several Ministers who were close followers of Rajasekhara Reddy were worried about their continuation in the Cabinet. Mr. Jagan could take up the issue with the Chief Minister.
In a related development, the APCC was gearing up to hold the maiden meeting of the reconstituted Coordination committee headed by AICC general secretary M. Veerappa Moily at Gandhi Bhavan.
According to sources, Mr. Moily would arrive in the city at 7.45 a.m. and attend the marriage of Home Minister P. Sabitha Indra Reddy's son Karthik Reddy. Later, he would proceed to Gandhi Bhavan to attend the coordination committee meeting.
