It has been learnt that Thakur has called up members of few of the eastern unit factions to check what's in their mind as he is pitching for Rajeev Shukla's name for presidency.
Shukla, on his part, was non-committal about his chances of being the next president of BCCI.
"How can I say anything on this right now? I don't want to speak on it," Shukla told reporters at the AGM of Uttar Pradesh Cricket Association (UPCA) in Kanpur.
"The BCCI Secretary will call a General Body meeting. This matter will be decided in that meeting. Till the time this meeting does not take place, it would not be appropriate to comment on this," Shukla added.
