As per the tour schedule, KCR, as Mr Rao is popularly known, will meet different political party leaders in the national capital, besides interacting with noted experts to discuss the country's economic conditions.
He will hold meetings with noted national journalists also.
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.
