As the government seeks a trust motion in Lok Sabha on Tuesday, Telegu Desam Party Chief N Chandrababu Naidu today met BSP supremo Mayawati to discuss the future strategy of their political alliance.

The UNPA leader drove down to meet Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Mayawati at her Humayun Road residence this evening and left after an hour's discussion with her.

According to sources close to the UP Chief Minister, the two leaders had discussed their future strategy following the trust vote on Tuesday.

During the day, Naidu also met CPI(M) general secretary Praksh Karat at the party headquarters in Delhi and then even caught up briefly with CPI leader A B Bardhan.

Rubbishing claims of the UPA government that they have the numbers to prove a majority at the house tomorrow, Naidu said that the "government and the Congress party is desperate. They are indulging in horse trading, but it will not survive despite all their attempts."

Rejecting speculations that RLD chief Ajit Singh and JD(S)supremo H D Deve Gowda were considering to support the government, he said, "I am in touch with both Gowda and Singh, and they have entrusted their support to us," he said.
