News Delhi, June 17 (IBNS):  As the meeting of Niti Ayog concluded on Sunday, West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said she has requested Prime Minister Narendra Modi to resolve the issue of Delhi government.

Earlier supporting her Delhi counterpart Arvind Kejriwal's sit-in protest against Lieutenant Governor (LG) Anil Baijal, Banerjee had said an "elected CM must get due respect."

Giving no break to the political drama in the national capital, several Delhi ministers along with Kejriwal are continuing their protests outside Baijal's office to pressurise the LG to fulfill Delhi government's demands, media reports said.

PM Modi chaired the fourth meeting of the Governing Council of NITI Aayog at Rashtrapati Bhawan on Sunday.

The Governing Council of NITI Aayog is the premier body tasked with evolving a shared vision of national development priorities, sectors and strategies with the active involvement of States in shaping the development narrative.

The Governing Council reviews the work done during the previous year and deliberates upon the future developmental priorities.
