Jayanthi Natarajan met Amit Shah last year, she was supposed to join BJP: Sources

New Delhi: Even as Jayanthi Natarajan made a dramatic exit out of the Congress, there are reports that she met Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) president Amit Shah in 2014.

There were also murmurs about her joining the party but following a dissent within the party, the decision was put on hold.

In a tell-all press conference on Friday, an emotional Jayanthi Natarajan lashed out at the Congress and putting the blame squarely on Rahul and Sonia Gandhi, resigned from the party post.

However, she refrained from commenting on whether she was in talks with the BJP or any other party to join after quitting the Congress.
