With the opposition launching a fresh offensive seeking her resignation over 'Lalitgate', External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj received support from veteran BJP leader Murli Manohar Joshi who met her tonight at her residence here.

Sources said Joshi spent a little over half-an-hour with Swaraj but did not reveal as to what transpired at the meeting.

Opposition parties have said that Swaraj's continuance as a minister has become untenable over the alleged acts of 'grave impropriety' by her in helping the tainted former IPL boss Lalit Modi.
