‘Don’t Insult Me Like This’: Mamata on PM’s Cyclone Meet Row

‘Mamata Banerjee’s absence from PM Modi’s meeting is murder of Constitutional ethos,’ BJP Chief JP Nadda said.

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee on Saturday, 29 May, hit back at the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) a day after a row over the meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi to review the damage caused by Cyclone ‘Yaas’.

Her address came a day after the Cente ordered Chief Secretary Alapan Bandyopadhyay to return to Delhi by 31 May.

Urging PM Modi to withdraw the order, Banerjee said, “I am urging you to withdraw this order against Chief Secretary. Please allow him to work amidst this pandemic and also carry out post-cyclone relief work.”
