The congress core committee members met at the residence of the Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh this evening and discussed the issues of Telangana and Mumbai blasts.
Party President Sonia Gandhi, Home Minister Chidambaram, Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee, Defence Minister AK Antony and in-charge of AP congress affairs Mr Ghulam Nabi Azad attended the meeting which lasted for nearly one hour.
The core committee meeting gains significance in the wake of the en masse resignations of congress MPs, MLAs and MLCs and their threat of intensifying the agitation from August 1 in case Telangana is not announced before that date.
However, the details of the meeting are not available for media persons.
