Mahua Moitra

The Parliament Ethics Committee on Thursday summoned Trinamool MP Mahua Moitra to appear before it on October 31 in connection with the cash-for-query charge against her. The TMC MP is facing allegations of taking bribes for raising questions in the Parliament. BJP MP Nishikant Dubey had written to Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla and levelled cash-for-query allegations against her.

The Lok Sabha panel issued the summons hours after Nishikant Dubey and Supreme Court lawyer Jai Anant Dehadrai appeared before the panel to record their statement. The Chairman of Parliament Ethics Committee, Vinod Sonkar said that the Supreme Court lawyer and the BJP MP were heard attentively and then it was decided that Mahua Moitra would be called on 31st October. 

He further added that the Committee has also decided that the IT ministry and MHA will be sent letters to make her details available. Reports said that the Parliamentary Ethics Committee agreed that the charges against TMC MP Mahua Moitra are very serious and that they will consider them seriously. 

BJP MP Nishikant Dubey and Supreme Court attorney Jai Anant Dehadrai alleged that Mahua Moitra accepted bribes in exchange for posing inquiries aimed at Prime Minister Narendra Modi and industrialist Gautam Adani in Parliament.

Dubey in his complaint to Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla cited documents shared by Dehadrai. Consequently, the Lok Sabha speaker forwarded the issue to the committee led by BJP MP Vinod Kumar Sonkar. Meanwhile, Union IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw said the National Informatics Centre (NIC) will extend full cooperation to the Parliament’s Ethics Committee in the investigation of charges levelled by Dubey against Moitra.

However, Mahua Moitra has dismissed all the allegations levelled against her, as a jilted ex’s lies and accused the Adani Group of targeting her to stop her from asking questions on the conglomerate. Furthermore, she also accused the BJP of orchestrating a plot to remove her from the Lok Sabha.

Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal on Sunday alleged BJP has started Operation Jhaadu to crush the Aam Aadmi Party since its popularity among the people is rising too fast.

Kejriwal pointed out that ED’s lawyer has already given this statement in court that soon after the election, AAP’s bank accounts will be frozen. He said that if they freeze their accounts now, then AAP will get sympathy. As a result after the election, ED will freeze AAP’s bank accounts. He said AAP’s party office will be cleared out, and the party will be brought to the streets.  Kejriwal said these are the 3 plans made by the BJP.

The Delhi chief minister claimed that no gold or money has been recovered from him, and the BJP, by creating false cases has got AAP leaders arrested. Kejriwal recalled that since the time he came to power in 2015, many allegations had been against him by the BJP. He said after the liquor policy scam has happened people are asking them if the scam happened then where is the money. He pointed out that in other places, when raids happen, notes and gold are recovered, but here nothing was found. Kejriwal asked the people that where is all the money?

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi was addressing an election rally on Saturday where he said that Arvind Kejriwal will vote for a Congress candidate and that he will vote for an AAP candidate in Delhi in the ongoing Lok Sabha elections as a mark of strong bond between the two allies.
