That is true. Both parties must agree to the agreement, verbal or written. Keep in mind that a verbal agreement isn't worth the paper it's written on.State whether the following are true or false with reasons.“An agreement requires a meeting of the minds”.
That's a loaded question. I say yes, because parties can agree not to agree, and with no mutual assent, there is no agreement. You can assend to agree, I can assend not to agree, and yet there exists an agreement. You can agree, and agreement to agree is not enforceable. Either you have an agreement or you don't, to the positive or negative, but it must be current - not for a future date. Further, an agreement is completely different than a contract - a contract requires consideration, undertaking or a promise with some consideration. Absent that, there is just an agreement, but not a contract.
a ';meeting of the minds'; is an idiom, so you should define what you really want it to mean. people can agree to disagree and hence not have a full meeting of the minds.
Your statement is true. A meeting of the minds is an essential element to form a legally binding contract. If there is no meeting of the minds, a contract has not been formed. For example, if I say I'm going to buy your car, but we never discuss price, there has been no meeting of the minds and you can't sue me for failing to complete the contract.





Some contracts, such as those involving land, require a writing to be valid and show the parties' agreement.
