Former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister and TDP president N. Chandra Babu Naidu today called on Tamil Nadu Chief Minister J Jayalalithaa at her Poes Garden residence in Chennai. Naidu who went to her residence around 12.30 pm was closeted with her for over 45 minutes. Naidu was accompanied by two of his colleagues. Jayalalithaa was assisted by her Finance Minister O.Panneerselvam. He briefed the Tamil Nadu Chief Minister about the present crisis in the state. Later talking to media Naidu said Jayalalithaa listened to him patiently. "Jayalalithaa said she was for both the sides. It is up to leaders to decide," Naidu said. He launched a scathing attack on the Congress and said the party is playing and they don't have values. He said the President should call people of both regions and hold talks with them. He further added that there is a process to bifurcate any state and the Congress is not following that. "There should be a state reorganasing committee before bifurcating any state. Even Tami Nadu was bifurcated by that. But now the Congress party is throwing all these norms in to the winds. They are playing politics during the elections. This is a dangerous trend and they can bifurcate any state without following any procedures" he said. But as for his party's stand was concerned Naidu was careful. "TDP wants to serve Telugu people, either in Seemandhra or in Telengana" was his careful reply to an another question. Naidu also said he wants to talk about it after the elections. Later Chandrababu Naidu headed towards the DMK headquarters to meet the DMK president M.Karunanidhi. It may be recalled that the YSR Congress president Jagan Mohan Reddy called on Tamil Nadu Chief Minister and Karunanidhi two months back and impressed upon them not to support the Telengana bill in the Parliament. So far Jayalalithaa was non committal on this issue. But Jayalalithaa opposed Telengana when she was in opposition in the state during the 2006-2011 period. There is no official word from Jayalalithaa in the last couple of months though the Telengana issue had become a volatile one.
