Mamata Banerjee and Sonia Gandhi arrived at the venue of the summit at around 6 pm and were seen chatting with each other for about half an hour, before the meeting started, sources said.
Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee and Congress Parliamentary Party chairperson Sonia Gandhi shared moments together, inquiring about each other's health and strategising on opposition unity on the first day of the Bengaluru meet, sources told PTI.
The two leaders met each other after a gap of two years. The last time Ms Banerjee met Mrs Gandhi was at the latter's residence in July 2021.
While the two leaders have always had a cordial relationship, certain comments made by Congress leaders both in Delhi and West Bengal were believed to have led to some bad blood between them.
