NCP president Sharad Pawar met Prime Minister Narendra Modi here on Saturday. The Prime Minister's Office tweeted a picture of their meeting but shared no details about their talks. However, it has come to light that the discussion was mainly about co-operation and banking sector.

In a tweet Pawar said, "Met the Hon. Prime Minister of our country Shri Narendra Modi. Had a discussion on various issues of national interest."

The meeting comes two days before Parliament''s Monsoon session starts on Monday. Union ministers Rajnath Singh and Piyush Goyal had met Pawar on Friday.

While the defence minister had briefed Pawar, also a former defence minister, on the border row involving China, Goyal had met him as part of the government''s outreach to opposition leaders before the session starts.
