NEW DELHI: Home Minister P Chidambaram, Planning Commission Deputy Chairman Montek Singh Ahluwalia and top Finance Ministry officials are likely to meet Prime Minister Manmohan Singh today and brief him on developments at Satyam and the arrest of its founder Ramalinga Raju.

Although no official comment was available, sources said the Satyam issue may be discussed among other things.

Gupta is also likely to apprise Singh during the day about the Satyam probe and other related developments.
