The CM had written the letter much before the Union Budget 2024-25 was announced, the sources said.
The Niti Aayog’s ninth governing council meeting will be held on Saturday in the national capital under the chairmanship of Prime Minister Modi.
The reason behind Vijayan’s inability to attend the meeting is not clear.
