As the Congress works through extreme seat talks with INDIA coalition partners in front of the public political race, Rahul Gandhi dialed Uddhav Thackeray yesterday to examine the gridlock north of eight of Maharashtra’s 48 seats.
Rahul Gandhi, who is in a Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra, purportedly addressed the Shiv Sena (UBT) pioneer for 60 minutes.
The Congress, say sources, need to challenge three of Mumbai’s six Lok Sabha seats – Mumbai South Focal, Mumbai North Focal and Mumbai North West. Uddhav Thackeray apparently needs to challenge 18 Lok Sabha seats in the state, remembering four for Mumbai – Mumbai South, Mumbai North West, Mumbai North East and Mumbai South Focal
