Prime Minister Narendra Modi chaired the NITI Aayog’s ninth Governing Council meeting on July 27 to discuss the various development issues and policy matters, which was skipped by several opposition CMs with only Mamata Banerjee attending from the INDI Alliance.

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee walked out of the NITI Aayog meeting chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi claiming that she didn’t get an opportunity to speak.

 

On NITI Aayog meeting in Delhi, West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee said, “…I said you (central government) should not discriminate against state governments. I wanted to speak but I was allowed to speak only for 5 minutes. People before me spoke for 10-20 minutes. I was the only one from the opposition who was participating but still, I was not allowed to speak. This is insulting…”
