Ahead of the crucial meetings of NDA and opposition INDIA bloc set to take place in Delhi today, JD(U)'s Nitish Kumar and RJD's Tejashwi Yadav were spotted in the same flight towards the national capital.
This comes a day after the results of the six-weeks long Lok Sabha polls were announced on June 4, with the BJP-led NDA bagging 293 seats and the opposition bloc INDIA finishing at 233. BJP alone has failed to reach the majority mark of 272 and has added 240 seats to its kitty.
The two allies of NDA -- Chandrababu Naidu's TDP and Nitish Kumar's JD(U) -- are expected to play a decisive role in order to clinch a majority as they hold the balance of the BJP-led NDA.
Kumar will on June 5 take part in the NDA meeting scheduled in the national capital. Meanwhile, the INDIA bloc will also hold a meeting in Delhi at around 6 pm.
Earlier today, TDP supremo N Chandrababu Naidu said his party was in NDA and that he will be attending the National Democratic Alliance meeting to be held in New Delhi.
NDA constituent Janasena party's chief Pawan Kalyan will also be attending the NDA meeting at the national capital, a day after the alliance emerged victorious in Assembly and Lok Sabha polls in Andhra Pradesh.
"We are in NDA. I am going for an NDA meeting. In the course of time, if there is anything we will report to you," Naidu said in a press conference when asked about his Delhi visit.
