Mahua Moitra In Cash-for-query case
New Delhi: Intensifying her attack at ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra Sunday strongly condemned Ethics Committee chief Vinod Sonkar. She accused the BJP leader, stationed as a committee head, for posing "sordid" questions in front of her when she appeared for cash-for-query case on November 2.
In her tweeet on X, the TMC leader warined the saffron party saying "before you push out women MPs with fake narrative..." This comes after the TMC MP attended an inquiry regarding allegedly taking money from businessman Darshan Hiranandani for asking questions about Adani Group.
"Also BJP - before you push out women MPs with fake narrative remember I have EXACT transcript of record in Ethics Committee verbatim. Chairman’s cheap sordid irrelevant questions, Opposition’s protests, my protests - all there in offical black & white. Besharam and Behuda," wrote Moitra on her official X account.
