TMC MP’s comment draws BJP anger

Hindustan Times  

A comment by Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra referring to late judge BH Loya in her speech in the Lok Sabha on Friday led to an uproar and prompted two short adjournments, a sharp response from Union parliamentary affairs minister Kiren Rijiju, and support from senior opposition members. He also objected to Moitra’s criticism of former Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud, who recently retired, for a host of reasons, including receiving Prime Minister Narendra Modi at his residence during the Ganapati festival. The parliamentary affairs minister took the entire custody of House and he virtually threatened the lady member.” Roy accused Rijiju of making “brazen effort” to threaten Moitra. Later in a post on X, Moitra said all those reporting that “parliament affairs minster warned me - it is he who will face action for threatening me!” Judge Loya’s death in 2014 had created a major row following a media report alleging foul play as he was hearing a politically sensitive case.
