PM Modi holds meeting with Shah, Jaitley

New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday held a meeting with BJP chief Amit Shah and Finance Minister Arun Jaitley. Though officials did not say what was discussed in the meeting, it came ahead of Modi's proposed visit to poll-bound Gujarat on October 7 and 8.

Shah, who was scheduled to address a rally in the home town of Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan on Thursday, cut short his programme to rush to Delhi for the meeting. The meeting also took place a day after Modi had defended his government's economic decisions amid opposition onslaught over slow economic growth.
