Niti Aayog clarified the allegations of Mamta Banerjee
Niti Aayog CEO BVR Subramaniam said, “West Bengal CM Mamata Banerjee was present. She had requested for a turn before lunch. Because, usually the meeting starts with Andhra Pradesh and then ends with Arunachal Pradesh. Every CM gets 7 minutes of time. In which there is only a clock on the top of the screen which tells you the time.”
He further said, “Mamata Banerjee presented her point and we respectfully listened to her and paid attention to what she said, which she would have said in a minute. At the same time, the Chief Secretary of West Bengal remained in the meeting because Mamata Banerjee had to catch a flight to Kolkata.”
