West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee walked out of a NITI Aayog meeting in New Delhi, alleging her microphone was deliberately switched off while she spoke about state fund allocation. Banerjee labeled the incident an "insult to Bengal" and all regional parties. She criticized the meeting's handling, claiming she wasn't given fair speaking time compared to other attendees. The government rebutted her claims, stating her allotted time had expired and she was accommodated early due to her schedule. The BJP accused Banerjee of politicizing the platform.
