The two leaders have developed a good rapport ever since Banerjee went to the Himalayan nation last year where Tobgay even drove her once to the hotel in Thimphu. West Bengal shares over 180 km long border with Bhutan.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Congress President Sonia Gandhi, Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley, RJD supremo Lalu Prasad Yadav, Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal and his Uttar Pradesh counterpart Akhilesh Yadav are also likely to be invited to the ceremony.
