Hyderabad, February 28: Union Minister of State for Coal Prateek Patil on Sunday afternoon called on Praja Rajyam Party President K. Chiranjeevi, in what was described as a personal visit facilitated by party MLA from Balkonda, Anil Eravat.
Mr. Anil and a few other close friends of the Union Minister were present when Mr. Patil met the Praja Rajyam President at his residence. It was said to be a courtesy call because the 36- year-old Union Minister was a long-time fan of Mr. Chiranjeevi.
When asked, Mr. Anil said the Minister had come to Hyderabad on Saturday and that they had driven to Udgir in adjoining Maharashtra to attend a wedding. Before catching a flight out of Hyderabad on Sunday, Mr. Patil spent about 45 minutes with Mr. Chiranjeevi.
