The Bharatiya Janata Party core group met at party president Nitin Gadkari's residence this evening to discuss the presidential polls.   

After the meet, BJP national general secretary H N Ananth Kumar said, "We will take a final decision at the NDA meet, which will be held tomorrow at 11 am."

Sources say the BJP might consider backing Pranab Mukherjee, particularly since APJ Abdul Kalam, seen as a rival candidate, is reportedly unwilling to run against the finance minister.
