This meeting served as an ideal platform for exchanging ideas, envisioning the path to propelling our nation to new heights, and discovering ways to serve the people with even greater dedication and commitment."

"I extend my heartfelt gratitude to them for their invaluable time. Guided by a shared vision of taking our nation to greater heights, may we continue to work dedicatedly for the progress and prosperity of people. Jai Hind," she added.

The grand opposition parties meeting is scheduled to be held on Friday and will be attended by several political leaders including Congress's Rahul Gandhi and Mallikarjun Kharge, according to reports.
