“We are together, will stay together and contest elections together. We have no differences about seat sharing,” he said.

Earlier, the NAC held meetings with the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) from Bihar.

Meanwhile, the panel held a meeting with the Samajwadi Party (SP) over the seat sharing.

“The meeting was held in a good atmosphere. On January 12, again the meeting will be held,” said SP leader Ram Gopal Yadav after the meeting.

Notably, several parties of the INDIA have already stressed the need to finalise on seat sharing at the earliest. The Opposition bloc is an umbrella of Opposition parties formed to take on the ruling BJP in the Lok Sabha polls.
