Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu today called on Governor E S L Narasimhan in Vijayawada.

The 90-minute meeting, which took place at a hotel, comes two days after Naidu sat on a day-long fast on his birthday seeking special category status for the state.

The governor made a sudden detour to Vijayawada from Visakhapatnam after attending an official programme last night. An official release said the chief minister made a "courtesy call" on the governor.

However, it did not provide details about the meeting.

Telugu Desam Party sources said the two discussed the current political scenario in wake of the agitation across Andhra Pradesh demanding special category status.

Naidu is said to have briefed the governor about the day-long fast.

The governor later left for Hyderabad.
