The Congress, under pressure from INDIA bloc allies, has finally made a move to thrash out the contentious issue of seat-sharing. Sources said party leaders are reaching out to allies for seat sharing and adjustments across the country. Senior leader Mukul Wasnik has dialled various Opposition party chiefs. If required, the Congress will go to states to meet Opposition leaders too if required.
Sources indicated that the party hopes to finalise the seat-sharing agreements before the next phase of Rahul Gandhi's Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra, which will begin on January 14. The idea is to get on with the campaigning as the Manipur-to-Mumbai march begins.
With that mind, the list of candidates, too, is expected to be finalised sooner rather than later.
