A meeting of Congress and other UPA allies will take place soon to chalk out a strategy for government formation at the Centre.
A meeting of the Congress Parliamentary Party (CPP) will also be taking place in "a day or two" to elect the new party president and CPP leader.
"In a day or two, CPP meeting will take place as some formalities have to be completed. CPP's President and leader have to be elected. Congress party's leaders in Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha have also to be decided," party's media department in-charge Janardan Dwivedi told reporters today.
He was speaking after attending a thanks giving function at the party's 'war-room' here. Dwivedi said the party will take steps one by one towards forming the government.
To a question which parties' support UPA would like to seek, Dwivedi said, "All these issues will be discussed later on. First, we will hold a meeting with UPA allies and only then it will be decided whose support has to be taken.
"All these things (about taking support of other parties) will be decided after the meeting with our old allies...With those who were with us earlier. We will first discuss the issue with them," Dwivedi said.
Party sources said that the meeting with UPA allies could take place any time after the Congress Working Committee meeting concludes today.
