Trinamool Congress not to comment on ‘cash for query’ allegation against Mahua Moitra

The Hindu  

The Trinamool Congress — whose leadership has so far maintained a careful silence on the BJP’s allegations that MP Mahua Moitra accepted cash to ask questions in Parliament — has now officially distanced itself from its beleaguered MP. The TMC’s decision to distance itself from the Krishnanagar MP has not come as a surprise; Ms. Moitra, though popular in Delhi’s political circles, is not influential as far as the party organisation is concerned. Adani port project Sources in the party say that the MP’s criticism of the Adani group has also not gone down well with the leadership. State Congress president Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury also spoke along similar lines, saying that the TMC leadership protests only if party general secretary Abhishek Banerjee is involved.
