- The two parties will also discuss whether to give the group an official name and put together a joint program, but they appear to be divided on both issues.

- While TMC President Mamata Banerjee is unlikely to attend the dinner, she, Abhishek’s nephew, other senior leaders and heads of all parties will be present on Tuesday when the main debates are likely to take place. Sonia Gandhi will also attend the meeting, and her presence is expected to galvanize unity efforts.
- Rally for Democracy President Jayant Chaudhry and Socialist Party Chairman Akhilesh Yadav will appear together for the first time in weeks, at the Bengaluru meeting. It will be interesting to note the body language of the two allies who have reportedly drifted apart in recent months.
