"Will Do What Needs To Be Done": Jairam Ramesh On INDIA Seat Sharing Talks

While the INDIA partners came together for their fourth meeting in the national capital recently, the potentially thorny issue of seat-sharing was left unaddressed.

Amid the continuing suspense over a seat-sharing agreement between the partners in the Opposition alliance -- INDIA, Congress leader Jairam Ramesh on Tuesday said talks would be held with an 'open mind'.

Speaking to ANI on Monday, Ramesh, the Congress general secretary in charge of communications, said, "Khule mann aur band muh se hi hum seat sharing pe baat aage chalaenge (We will carry forward seat-sharing talks with an open mind and refraining from public statements)."

The Congress leader added that different states would pose different challenges with regard to advancing seat-sharing talks and the discussions, hence, be held, taking all aspects into consideration.
