Congress hopes rested on informal talks with ex-Congressmen in SP8212;Salim Sherwani and Naresh Agarwal. However, Amar Singh8217;s story is that he managed to get Prakash Karat to visit his house, precipitating the formalisation of the UNPA headed by SP chief Mulayam Singh Yadav and snuffing out any hopes that the Congress may have harboured about a possible deal. The last word, however, say sources, is still to be said.
