Bharatiya Janata Party working president JP Nadda on Sunday met former cricketer Rahul Dravid at his residence in Bengaluru.

The meeting between Nadda and Dravid was a part of the BJP's campaign, 'Sampark Se Samarthan Abhiyan.' Nadda also met Chandrashekar Kambar, a Jnanpith award recipient as part of the BJP's ongoing nationwide campaign on the abrogation of Article 370 in Jammu and Kashmir.

"After meeting Dravid and Kambar, Nadda will participate in a programme organised in the memory of former Union Minister Ananth Kumar on his birth anniversary," Anil Baluni, BJP's national media convenor, said in a statement.

Dravid, also known as "Mr Dependable", is among five Indians to be inducted in the ICC's Hall of Fame. He had a huge role in shaping the future of Indian cricket as the head coach of India A and India U19 teams.
