Bihar Congress in-charge Bhakta Charan Das dismissed reports of Congress interim president Sonia Gandhi calling Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) chief Lalu Prasad Yadav and said that he would have known had any talks happened.

"No conversation has taken place between Sonia Gandhi and Lalu Prasad Yadav. If talks had happened, then I would have been informed. There is no truth in it," Das said. The reports of a telephonic conversation between the two were surfacing. However, the details of the discussion remained unknown.
