Standing firm behind expelled Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra and calling her expulsion "unfortunate," West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee said that expelling TMC MP without giving her chance to defend herself was "wrong".
Omar Abdullah, whose party is a crucial member of the opposition alliance alongside the Trinamool Congress (TMC), said that 'democracy shouldn't be killed in this way'.
Avoiding making a comment on the expulsion of Mahua Moitra from the 17th Lok Sabha in cash for the query case, BJP MP Nishikant Dubey, who was one of the complainants in the matter, termed the suspension of the TMC leader a 'sad day'.
After the expulsion of Mahua Moitra from the Lok Sabha, Congress MP Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury on Friday said that all of this is being done based on "baseless facts" and with a "sentiment of revenge."
