Vajpayee holds second one-to-one meeting with Sai Baba

Press Trust of IndiaPuttaparthi (AP), February 12 Prime Minister Atal Bihari

Vajpayee had a one-hour long audience with spiritual leader Sai Baba, the

second during his two-day visit to this spiritual town, before emplaning for

Delhi on Thursday morning.

 

Official sources said Vajpayee met Sai Baba at his abode, Prashanti Nilayam,

where the prime minister stayed overnight and had a 15-minute audience soon

after his arrival amidst unprecedented security on Wednesday.

 

In the wake of activities of outlawed People's War Group in the naxal-hit

Ananthpur district, police had thrown a thick security blanket and "sanitised"

the entire route from the airport to Prashanti Nilayam.

 

Bomb disposal squads were deployed and round-the-clock patrol held as part of beefed up security.

 

During Vajpayee's stay here, Andhra Pradesh chief minister and Telugu Desam

leader Chandrababu Naidu also had a 45-minute meeting with him on Wednesday.

 

Meanwhile, Naidu had a "darshan" of Sai Baba on Thursday morning.
