KC Venugopal, Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury, Ambika Soni, Ahmed Patel, AK Antony and other Congress leaders arrive at 10 Janpath for the Congress Working Committee meet. The meeting is being held at the residence of the party's interim president Sonia Gandhi in New Delhi.

The CWC meeting comes a day after multiple discussions took place between Congress and NCP leaders, following which Sonia Gandhi was also briefed on Wednesday night.

Congress leaders including Ahmed Patel, Jairam Ramesh and Mallikarjun Kharge had briefed Sonia about their meeting with the Nationalist Congress Party chief Sharad Pawar regarding the ongoing political crisis in Maharashtra.

The CWC meeting has been called ahead of Congress and NCP leaders which are likely to hold a meeting at 10 am today.

Former Maharashtra chief minister and senior Congress leader Prithviraj Chavan on Wednesday said that there will be a joint meeting of the two parties in the afternoon today.

"We have finished our discussions at the meeting. We resolved many issues and Shiv Sena leadership was in touch with us through the phone. We will continue tomorrow when Congress and NCP will sit separately tomorrow and then will hold a joint meeting in the afternoon following which we will proceed to Mumbai in the evening. Day after tomorrow Shiv Sena, Congress and NCP will sit together by the end of which there will be the announcement," Chavan told ANI.

After briefing Gandhi, the three Congress leaders again returned to NCP chief Sharad Pawar's residence.
