Mamata Banerjee indicated on Tuesday she was likely to attend Modi's swearing-in ceremony on May 30 as it was a matter of “constitutional propriety”. Banerjee, who had skipped Modi’s swearing-in during his first term in 2014, said she had spoken to several opposition CMs before taking a call. Party sources feel her decision could be an attempt to de-escalate the tension that has kept Bengal on edge since the Lok Sabha election results were declared.
