Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman criticised Congress leader Jairam Ramesh on social media for his remarks on the treatment of West Bengal Chief Miniter Mamata Banerjee at a NITI Aayog meeting. Ramesh accused NITI Aayog of being biased and non-professional, leading to a heated exchange with Sitharaman defending the organisation's conduct. Sitharaman refuted Ramesh's claims, stating that Banerjee was given the allotted time to speak, and accused her of spreading false information to appease political alliances.
