According to party sources, a proposal was kept during the meeting to hold a joint public meeting in four states.
However, the party leaders remained tightlipped. This was the first meeting of the campaign committee after the INDIA bloc, during its two-day meeting in Mumbai, constituted it.
The INDIA bloc has formed a 14 member coordination committee and also Campaign Committee, research committee and social media committee to take on the BJP-led NDA in 2024 Lok Sabha elections.
