PM to meet DMs State expresses reservation

• Thursday | 13th May, 2021

Kolkata: The state government has expressed its reservation over the move of Prime Minister Narendra Modi meeting directly with state government officers and District Magistrates surpassing the Chief Minister and the Cabinet ministers in connection with the Covid pandemic. TMC has also criticised the move claiming it to be an infringement of the country's federal structure. According to sources, Modi is scheduled to hold a meeting with the state Chief Secretary and other officers involved in the fight against the pandemic. When he actually had to hold meetings over Covid situation, he was busy campaigning for his party in Bengal. If he has to say anything, he must speak to the CM who will take the subsequent steps after the meetings."
