According to party spokesperson Rajiv Pratap Rudy, the BJP's core group will meet at the residence of senior party leader L.K. Advani to decide the points.

The core group meeting is likely to be attended by Swaraj and her counterpart in the Rajya Sabha Arun Jaitley, among others, a party leader said.

Swaraj is scheduled to meet Obama, who is arriving in Delhi Sunday as part of his Nov 6-9 India visit on Monday.

Obama's first speech in Mumbai on terror has drawn flak from India's principal opposition party for making no direct reference to terror emanating from Pakistan.
