What the reports sayEach newsroom’s own summary of its report, from its feed

Asked what is the hurdle for a merger, Sule said, "There is no question. Discussions happened when my brother was alive. We also had that sentiment. After he passed away, the matter ended there".
Her remarks came shortly after Maharashtra NCP president Sunil Tatkare said he saw no substance in the speculation surrounding merger talks.
