Patna (Bihar) [India], August 30 (ANI): BJP leader and Lok Sabha Mp Ravi Shankar Prasad on Saturday slammed TMC MP Mahua Moitra's reported remark about Union Home Minister Amit Shah, questioning whether she wanted to face another expulsion
Prasad said, "Her statement is condemnable. Her membership has been revoked once. Now, will she want to repeat this again? She used such words against the country's home minister; what status do such people have? What kind of people does Mamata Banerjee have?"
Mahua Moitra was expelled from the Lok Sabha in December 2023 after the House accepted the recommendations of the Ethics Committee's probe report on cash-for-query charges against her.
Earlier, Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma chose not to react to TMC MP Mahua Moitra's reported remark about Union Home Minister Amit Shah, stating that responding wouldn't benefit the country.
After viewing the video of Moitra's comment, Sarma asserted that the video itself reflects her mindset, rendering further discussion unnecessary.
"I think as a CM, I should not react to all the statements, particularly of certain people. This doesn't benefit the country in any manner. I saw that video yesterday; that video itself is the answer to her mindset. There is no use in speaking anything on it," CM Sarma said while addressing a press conference.
Assam Assembly Deputy Speaker and BJP leader Numal Momin strongly condemned TMC MP Mahua Moitra's reported remarks and called for "exemplary action" against her.
Momin said she belongs to an "uncultured, pro-Rohingya and pro-Bangladeshi Muslim infiltrator party" and accused their party of "destroying" the Bhartiya culture.
Speaking to ANI, the Assam Assembly Deputy Speaker said, "We cannot expect more than this from Mahua Moitra. She belongs to an uncultured, pro-Rohingya and pro-Bangladeshi Muslim infiltrator party. Their party is destroying the Bhartiya culture. Their main agenda is to make West Bengal an Islamic state...The way she gave the statement against Amit Shah is very shameful. I strongly condemn her statement...Mahua Moitra should respect the chair..."
TMC MP Mahua Moitra has reportedly said Union Home Minister Amit Shah's "head should be cut off" for failing to check the infiltration of illegal Bangladeshis into India. (ANI)
