Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee on Saturday convened a meeting of senior ministers to further discuss the demands of Baba Ramdev who is on a hunger strike demanding immediate measures to get back the black money stashed away abroad.
The meeting comes shortly after the Baba took a two-hour break from his protest to discuss issues with government representatives on various issues related to his demands.
Union Ministers P. Chidambaram, Kapil Sibal, Subodh Kant Sahay, Cabinet Secretary K. M. Chandrasekhar and Principal Secretary to the Prime Minister T.K. A. Nair were in the meeting called by Mr. Mukherjee in his North Block office.
Meanwhile, back-channel talks are on to resolve the stand-off in the wake of Baba Ramdev’s agitation.
