Besides Mamata, Cong CMs too not to attend Modi's meeting on Land bill

New Delhi, Jul 14 (IBNS) All Congress Chief Ministers have decided to skip the Niti Aayog meeting convened by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in the national capital on Wednesday.

Media reports said the move is part of Congress President Sonia Gandhi's strategy to step up opposition to the Narendra Modi government's different measures, especially the land bill.

Prime Minister Modi has convened the meeting to discuss the Land Acquisition Bill, which the Centre has struggled to pass in the Rajya Sabha.

The bill is currently with a Parliamentary standing committee.

West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has already communicated to the Prime Minister that she too would skip the meeting in opposition to the bill.

In the last session of Parliament, the opposition was united behind the Congress against the land bill calling it anti-farmer.
