Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao Monday invited his Andhra Pradesh counterpart Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy for the inauguration of the Kaleswaram irrigation project on June 21.
Jagan hosted lunch for Chandrasekhar Rao (popularly known as KCR), the second occasion he is playing host to the Telangana chief minister after his swearing-in as AP CM on May 30.
KCR was accompanied by his son K T Rama Rao, former MP B Vinod Kumar and TRS leaders Santosh and P Rajeswara Reddy when he called on Jagan at his residence here.
