The Telangana CM is scheduled to visit Mohalla Clinics in Delhi with Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal at 5 pm today.

On May 22 afternoon, the Chief Minister will take up his Chandigarh tour. As announced earlier, he will console 600 families of farmers who laid down their lives during the nationwide farmers' agitation against the then contentious farm laws.

As financial assistance, he will distribute Rs 3 lakh to each family. The cheque distribution will be taken up along with his counterparts in Delhi and Punjab, Arvind Kejriwal, and Bhagwant Mann respectively.

Pertinently, in February last, KCR met his Maharashtra counterpart Uddhav Thackeray at 'Varsha', the official residence of Maharashtra CM as part of an effort to bring together various like-minded parties against the BJP at the national level against the BJP.

Taking an aim at the BJP-led Union government, the two leaders condemned the central government for its “misuse of the central agencies”. Thackeray had then targeted the BJP over its “Hindutva politics”, accusing it of using it to further its own agendas.
