Mamata to speak at Delhi Assembly workshop

Kolkata, Aug 29: West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee has accepted an invitation from the Aam Aadmi Party to speak at a workshop in Delhi Assembly.

"They have invited me for a workshop in Delhi Assembly. I will go there," Banerjee told reporters after a meeting with a seven-member delegation of AAP leaders at her office.

AAP legislator Somnath Bharti said they were here to see the functioning of the state Assembly.

"We stand by 'Didi'. We are with her in the federal structure," he said while claiming that the newly-constructed Niti Aayog was dangerous for the country.

Bharti also alleged that Prime Minister Narendra Modi was causing harm to India's parliamentary structure.
