Naveen Patnaik , Mamata Banerjee resolve to make federal structure strong, permanent

BHUBANESWAR: Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik and his West Bengal counterpart Mamata Banerjee on Thursday resolved to make the federal structure of the country ”strong and permanent”.

The two chief ministers held a meeting at the conclusion of Banerjee’s three-day visit to Odisha. Addressing reporters at the end of the meeting at Naveen Niwas — Patnaik’s residence — with Banerjee beside him, the Odisha CM said, ”We resolved to make the federal structure of the country permanent and strong. There was no other political discussion.”

Banerjee seconded Patnaik and said, ”I strongly support what Naveen ji said and I appreciate this.” However, both leaders skipped questions on the possibilities of a third front or a regional alliance for the 2024 Lok Sabha polls.
