There is no postponement of all-party meet: Shinde

Putting to rest all speculations, Union Home Minister Shushil Kumar Shinde on Monday ruled out any postponement of all-party meet on Telangana scheduled on December 28.

Addressing a press-conference in New Delhi, Shinde said "Chief Minister met me on Saturday and gave me a letter saying there is a Telugu conference on 26, 27, 28. He had requested to postpone the meeting. I have not taken it very seriously. I have to write to all other parties. So far we have not written to any party. Let's see the response from the parties," he said.

When reporters questioned him about the postponement of the all-party meet, he replied "My meeting is on December 28. It will discuss Telangana issue."
