New Delhi, Jan 6 (IANS) Home Minister P. Chidambaram Thursday regretted the boycott of the meeting here on Telangana by the Telangana Rashtra Samiti (TRS), Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Telugu Desam Party (TPD).

‘I note that some political parties invited to this meeting have chosen not to attend. I deeply regret the stand taken by them. It does scant justice to the valuable work done by the Justice Srikrishna Committee and (the) report,’ he said in his opening remarks.

The Congress, Communist Party of India (CPI), Communist Party of India-Marxist (CPI-M), Majlis-e-Ittehadul Muslimeen (MIM) and Praja Rajyam Party attended the meeting.
