In a groundbreaking move, the parliamentary Ethics Committee has plunged deep into an investigation surrounding Trinamool Congress MP, Mahua Moitra. The Lok Sabha MP finds herself at the center of a whirlwind of controversy, with allegations suggesting a potential “cash for query” arrangement. As part of this explosive inquiry, the committee has reached out to the Union IT and Home ministries, seeking detailed records of Moitra’s logins and travel details. The heart of the matter? The sensational claim that Moitra might have granted access to businessman Darshan Hiranandani, enabling him to directly post questions on Lok Sabha using her login credentials.

Hiranandani’s Affidavit Raises Eyebrows

The controversy deepens with an affidavit by the Dubai-based businessman, Hiranandani. In this document, he drops the bombshell allegation that Moitra shared her Lok Sabha e-mail ID for the sole purpose of targeting the Adani Group. Even more, he asserts that she later provided him with direct login access. With the plot thickening, the Ethics Committee hasn’t stopped there. They’ve extended their quest for truth, penning a letter to the Ministry of External Affairs, aiming to verify the authenticity of Hiranandani’s affidavit.

Intense Hearing Puts Allegations Under Spotlight

With the stakes reaching sky-high, the committee recently wrapped up a marathon hearing. BJP MP Nishikant Dubey and lawyer Jai Anant Dehadrai took center stage, laying out all aspects of their allegations against Moitra. Notably, Dubey was the primary force pushing for the inquiry, following a complaint by Dehadrai to the Supreme Court. The twist? Dehadrai, dubbed a “jilted ex” by Moitra, claims to have solid evidence pointing to Hiranandani bribing the Trinamool leader. Meanwhile, amidst the mounting pressures, Moitra stands her ground, vehemently denying all accusations and expressing her readiness to cooperate with the committee.
