Uproar Over Mahua Moitra's Derogatory Comment Against Amit Shah

The BJP is livid with Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra over her alleged comments against Union Minister Amit Shah. Her comments have drawn massive condemnation from the party, with various leaders making strong remarks. 

Mahua Moitra had apparently said if Amit Shah fails to stop infiltration from Bangladesh, he should be beheaded. She allegedly made the statement while speaking to reporters in West Bengal's Nadia district on the sidelines of an event on Thursday.

In the polce case filed against her in Raipur by Chhattisgarh police, she has been accused of promoting enmity between groups, and imputations, assertions prejudicial to national integration. The MP had alleged that the Union government is shirking its responsibilities on border security.

BJP has also planned a protest against Mahua Moitra's comment. The women's wing of the party will hold a foot march in Kolkata at 2 pm tomorrow.

What The BJP Said

"The TMC MP's comment against the Home Minister has crossed all limits of decency. Abusing, asking for head rolling, sometimes "Maut ka saudagar" and so many ore disrespectful words that are hard to utter, such words are used to describe our Prime Minister," said the BJP's Raman Singh.

The BJP's Amit Malviya accused Ms Moitra of mocking the Scheduled Caste Community. Posting a video on social media platform X, Mr Malviya also claimed she has made shocking remarks against the Hindu community as well. "All year you are Trinamooli, and during elections Sanatani?" she apparently said. The BJP inferred that it was an open declaration "that one cannot be a Hindu and a Trinamool supporter at the same time!"

Trinamool Defence

The Trinamool has defended the NP with state minister Sovon Deb Chattopadhyay saying, "Mahua is not a fool that she will disrespect certain community. It is the BJP who is disrespecting Bengalis. They are targeting Mahua as she is the most prominent voice against the BJP in parliament". 

Senior Trinamool Congress leader and minister Shashi Panja strongly objected to BJP MP Ramesh Bidhuri's derogatory remark against ms Moitra.

Shashi Panja said that the BJP has a history of insulting women. "When Prime Minister Narendra Modi came to Bengal, he too had insulted Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee by mocking her with 'Didi O Didi.' But the people of Bengal gave a strong reply, and the BJP had to face defeat," she said.

She further added that BJP leaders in Bengal continue to make objectionable remarks against women leaders of the Trinamool Congress. "Even though Ramesh Bidhuri's post has now been deleted from social media, the screenshot has already gone viral," she pointed out.

Issuing a warning, Shashi Panja said that the people of Bengal are watching everything closely. The BJP will face a strong response once again.
