Amidst talks for an alliance between the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Lok Janshakti Party (LJP), Narendra Modi is likely to meet Ram Vilas Paswan on Thursday.

The talks of an alliance between BJP and LJP ahead of General Elections are at an advanced stage and the two parties are discussing seat-sharing agreement, sources here said.

The LJP, according to sources, initially sought that 10 Lok Sabha constituencies should be allocated to it to contest for in Bihar, and wants at least eight constituencies now.

The party on Wednesday said it is looking for "alternate allies" and the option for BJP is open.

"...all steps..., should be taken in the interest of the party and if an alternative alliance is to be firmed up, party chief Ram Vilas Paswan should take the decision," LJP leader Chirag Paswan said after a meeting of the party's parliamentary board.
