Former Karnataka Chief Minister H D Kumaraswamy met Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao (KCR) in Hyderabad on Sunday. The two leaders talked at length about the political scenario of the country and had “fruitful” discussions on a range of matters, including the possibility of launching a national party, for over three hours.
Both the leaders agreed that the people of the country are fed up with the conservative politics of 75 years and there is a need for dynamic governance suited to the present social and economic conditions.
During the meeting, Kumaraswamy heaped praise on KCR for his relentless agitation for a separate state, peacefully achieving Telangana statehood and the development the state has witnessed in a span of eight years after its formation.
“The country needs Telangana model,” Kumaraswamy told KCR.

The former Karnataka Chief Minister said the vast experience KCR has garnered by involving people from all communities to achieve his goal of a separate state in a democratic and peaceful manner is very essential for India in the current situation.
Kumaraswamy said KCR should play an active role in national politics given the absence of an alternative in the governance of the country.
