It is said that the discussions between the two leaders centered around the current political scenario in Karnataka and the differences that have cropped over budget presentation between Congress and JD(S). It is said that leaders discussed the strategy to be adopted by BJP in future.

It is said that current political situation was also discussed by the leaders then. Therefore, the above meeting has gained added significance. The national leadership of BJP wants its state unit to encash the differences between the above two parties to its advantage, sources claim.
