WB CM Mamata Banerjee meets PM Narendra Modi

New Delhi: A day after West Bengal Chief Minister and TMC leader Mamata Banerjee reached the national capital, she met Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday.

After meeting Prime Minister Narendra Modi, She said,"PM should call an all-party meeting on the Pegasus issue. There should be a Supreme Court-monitored probe in this matter."

Apart from PM Modi, Kamal Nath and Congress leader Anand Sharma also met Mamata Banerjee in Delhi.

Last week, Banerjee had said she will meet President Ram Nath Kovind, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, and leaders of Opposition parties during her stay in the national capital for two-three days.

Briefing media persons, West Bengal Chief Minister had said, "I will go to Delhi during the Parliament session and meet some leaders there. I will meet the President and the Prime Minister if given an appointment."

This is the first visit of Banerjee after her victory in the Bengal Assembly elections earlier this year. Banerjee's visit during the Parliament's Monsoon session holds significance as the Opposition is cornering the BJP-led NDA government on a range of issues including price rise, increasing cost of diesel and petrol, and issues related to tackling the COVID-19 pandemic.
