Mysore/Mysuru: Ahead of Lok Sabha polls, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah called on Chamarajanagar BJP MP V. Sreenivasa Prasad, who has announced political retirement, at the latter’s residence in Jayalakshmipuram here this morning and enquired about his health.
The CM’s visit assumes significance as it comes after a gap of eight years since Prasad parted ways with Congress after he was dropped from the then Siddaramaiah-led Congress Government in 2016. After the meeting, both leaders claimed that this was a courtesy visit and politics was not discussed. Siddu was closeted with Prasad for about 10 minutes.
