The Asansol MP believed that the meeting will aid in the development of a shared minimum programme for the new government which replaces the current regime.

“I am not an astrologer but it is safe to say that there will be a miracle”, he replied.
“We saw glimpses of what is possible in the assembly elections in Himachal Pradesh and Karnataka where the BJP was trounced by the Congress”, he added.
