The Lok Sabha Ethics Committee is hearing the matter related to a cash for query complaint against TMC MP Mahua Moitra today. BJP MP Nishikant Dubey had alleged that she had taken bribes to ask questions in Parliament on behalf of a businessman to target the Adani Group and Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Advocate Jai Anant Dehadrai appeared before the committee this afternoon in this case. Mr. Dubey will also appear in front of the Committee to present oral evidence.
Earlier, Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla had referred the matter to the Ethics Committee in which accusations were made against Ms Moitra of breach of parliamentary privilege, contempt and criminal conspiracy. However, the TMC MP had denied the allegations.
