Banerjee did not attend the meeting but entered the room from where Modi was holding the meeting and submitted a report to him on the damages caused by the cyclone in the state, and sought a Rs 20,000 crore package for redevelopment of the worst-hit areas.
She was accompanied by Chief Secretary Alapan Bandyopadhyay. A few hours after the meeting, the Centre ordered his transfer to Delhi.
“I have no word to criticise the way the West Bengal chief minister and the chief secretary insulted the prime minister,” Adhikari, a BJP MLA, told reporters in a virtual press conference.
