TMC MP Mahua Moitra, surrounded by allegations of taking bribe and asking questions in Parliament, has once again come into limelight. Now, BJP MP Nishikant Dubey has filed a complaint with the anti-corruption ombudsman Lokpal against Moitra, accusing her of taking bribes to raise questions in Parliament.

Dubey in his complaint said that Moitra was in India when her parliamentary ID was used in Dubai and claimed that the National Informatics Centre (NIC) had disclosed the information to probe agencies.

Meanwhile, Moitra also claimed on X that she had received a message about an impending CBI raid. “I am busy with Durga Puja. I invite CBI to come home & count my pairs of shoes. But first please file FiR into 13,000 crore coal money Adani stole from Indians,” she added.

Soon after Moitra post, Dubey posted a message in Hindi, saying he was “tired of hearing of CBI, CBI” and has lodged a complaint with Lokpal, which is entrusted with probing the case of corruption against public authorities, including MPs. “Lokpal oversees the complaints against parliamentarians and ministers. The CBI is its medium,” he added.

Earlier, the Nishikant Dubey alleged that “an MP pawned the country’s security for some money.” “The MP’s ID was opened from Dubai when the so-called parliamentarian was in India. The entire Indian government, including the prime minister, finance department and central agencies, use this NIC,” the BJP MP said.

Without naming the agency Dubey further stated that “Does the Trinamool Congress (TMC) and the opposition still have to do politics? People will take a decision. The NIC has given this information to probe agency,”
The Lok Sabha’s Ethics Committee is looking into Dubey’s complaint and has asked him to appear before it on October 26 for recording “oral evidence”.
