Bihar : Then Nitish Kumar will not attend the meeting with PM Modi, this time the distance made from the meeting of NITI Aayog

Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar will once again not attend the meeting with PM Modi. Nitish Kumar will be absent from the meeting of NITI Aayog to be held in Delhi under the chairmanship of PM Narendra Modi on Monday. Nitish Kumar, who had just recovered from Corona, wanted to send his Deputy Chief Minister to the meeting, but he was told that only the Chief Minister can attend, and he has no representative. In such a situation, this time there will be no representation from Bihar in the meeting chaired by PM Modi.

However, according to officials, Nitish Kumar is likely to be present at the Janata Darbar called every Monday. Due to his health, the Janata Darbar was not being held for the last few weeks.

According to sources, CM Nitish Kumar is upset with the ranking of NITI Aayog, in which Bihar is always placed at the bottom of the developed states.

Earlier, Nitish Kumar had also stayed away from the banquet organized by PM Modi in honor of the then President Ram Nath Kovind. Then the President did not even attend the oath ceremony of Draupadi Murmu. Apart from this, Nitish Kumar did not even attend the meeting of Chief Ministers called by Union Home Minister Amit Shah. In this he had sent his deputy chief minister.

Let us tell you, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will chair the meeting of the Governing Council of NITI Aayog on August 7. An official statement of the PMO said that during the meeting various issues including crop diversification and implementation of the National Education Policy will be discussed. This will be the first meeting of the Governing Council after a one-on-one meeting after July 2019. The members of the council include all the chief ministers. The Prime Minister is the chairman of NITI Aayog.

Usually the full council meets every year. This meeting was held under the chairmanship of Modi on February 20 last year. The council meeting was not convened in 2020 due to the corona virus epidemic.

The agenda of this meeting, to be held at the cultural center of Rashtrapati Bhavan, includes crop diversification, achieving self-sufficiency in oilseeds, pulses and agro-communities, implementation of the National Education Policy and urban governance.
