New Delhi: The Saturday cynosure has begun - with an eye on stitching a formidable opposition to the Narendra Modi-dispensation in the Lok Sabha polls, the INDIA alliance partners have started their all-important virtual meeting where the contentious issue of seat sharing will be dwelled upon.
Apart from seat sharing, participation in Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra and other matters related to the alliance are slated to be discussed in the meeting.

The meeting lasted for about two hours at Mukul Wasnik's house, and the leaders of both parties described the meeting as a positive move, as per sources.
Congress General Secretary Jairam Ramesh on Friday informed that the meeting will also discuss the participation of the alliance parties in the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra, which is set to begin on January 14 in Manipur.
