Discussions were held in Delhi and further decisions in this regard will be taken after the Lok Sabha elections, the Assam Chief Minister told a news channel.

Meanwhile, BJP sources told UNI that “People close to a three-time Congress MP contesting against a union minister in Kerala have also approached Himanta Biswa Sarma.
