They are likely to discuss the pending issues like asset distribution between Andhra Pradesh and Telangana, clearance of the debts and the division of AP Bhavan in New Delhi.

The meeting is scheduled to take place soon after KCR visits Durga temple in Vijayawada to present gold nose stud to Goddess Durga as part of fulfilling his vows for realising the long cherished dream of Telangana State. KCR has already released Rs 75 lakh for making the nose stud.

The Telangana officials were already holding meetings with AP counterparts on the issues to be discussed ahead of the meeting of the two CMs. They are also preparing a detailed report on the status of the pending issues since the bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh.
