New Delhi: West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee walked out of NITI Aayog's 9th Governing Council meeting on Saturday, July 27, in New Delhi. According to Banerjee, she was allowed to speak for only five minutes, which led to her departure from the meeting chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

Banerjee expressed her frustration to reporters, stating, "I said the central government should not discriminate against state governments. I wanted to speak but was allowed only five 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."

The meeting aims to foster participative governance and collaboration between the Centre and state governments, focusing on making India a developed nation by 2047. The council includes all state chief ministers, lieutenant governors of Union Territories, and several Union ministers, with Prime Minister Modi serving as the chairman.

Key themes discussed include access, quality, and efficiency of drinking water, electricity, health care, schooling, and land and property digitization. Recommendations from the 3rd National Conference of chief secretaries held in December last year were also reviewed.

NITI Aayog in 2023 was entrusted with preparing a vision document to help India become a USD 30 trillion economy by 2047. This document must consolidate 10 sectoral thematic visions like economic growth, social progress, environmental sustainability, and good governance into a combined vision for "Viksit Bharat @2047."
