New Delhi, Dec 12 : Maharashtra Chief Minister Ashok Chavan will meet Prime Minister Dr. Manmohan Singh and Home Minister P Chidambaram here today.

This will be his first visit to New Delhi after becoming Chief Minister on December 8.

According to sources, he is also scheduled to visit his hometown Nanded and Nagpur on Sunday.

Chavan, an MLA from Nanded and son of former Union Minister S B Chavan, was elected a Member of the Parliament for the first time in 1987.
