The DMK and Congress on Friday continued their talks to identify constituencies both parties would contest as alliance partners under a seat sharing deal for the April 13 Tamil Nadu Assembly polls.

“The talks are continuing. They are satisfactory. We will meet in the evening to continue the talks,” TNCC president K.V. Thankgabalu told reporters at DMK headquarters Anna Arivalayam here.

Under the seat sharing agreement reached between the two parties on Tuesday, Congress will contest 63 seats and DMK 121.

Congress sources indicated that the present exercise will be concluded by this evening.
