TRS MLC from Ramulu Naik on Sunday reportedly met Telangana Congress affairs in-charge R.C. Khuntia at a private hotel on Sunday.

According to sources, Mr Khuntia and Mr Ramulu Naik discussed the latter's joining date and some other matters. The sources also said that the discussions ended at a positive note and soon Mr Ramulu might join the Congress.

However, when contacted by this newspaper, Mr Ramulu denied the claims and said that he was not planning to join the Congress.

Mr Ramulu also said that he visited a friend staying in a private hotel, where the Congress core committee meeting was also being held.
