He stated as many as 100 points are proposed to be mentioned within the eighth governing council meeting of the NITI Aayog however chief ministers of eight states aren’t coming to attend it.
Chief ministers Arvind Kejriwal, Bhagwant Mann and Mamata Banerjee are amongst these not attending the meet. “Why are they not coming to attend the meeting where 100 issues are to be discussed. If such a large number of chief ministers do not participate, they are not bringing the voice of their states,” Prasad stated.
