Amid talks of a reshuffle in the Union Cabinet and recasting of BJP's decision-making bodies, Prime Minister Narendra Modi held consultations with party chief Amit Shah and Finance Minister Arun Jaitley on May 20.

Though there was no official communication about what transpired in the deliberation among the top brass, sources said it could be linked to the changes in the government and party as the Modi dispensation approaches its second anniversary.

A party official, though, noted that the top leaders meet frequently to take stock of the political situation.

With assembly elections in several states, the one in Uttar Pradesh being the most crucial, approaching, there is likely to be more representation to the state in the government, sources have said.
