West Bengal Congress chief called on Ganguly at his residence.
However, political circles were agog with speculation that the Congress was keen on offering Ganguly a Rajya Sabha ticket, or candidacy for Lok Sabha polls 2014.
Meanwhile, 41-year-old Ganguly said he got a proposal from the BJP, but had not yet decided anything in the matter.
"Yes, I have received a proposal, but am yet to decide anything. It's a big decision, and not an easy one. I will have to sort out so many things," Ganguly said.
State BJP president Rahul Sinha Saturday said party general secretary Varun Gandhi, also the in-charge of the party's affairs in West Bengal, had, during a meeting in Delhi, made the offer to Ganguly to contest the Lok Sabha polls from a constituency of his choice.
