"Called An Apple, An Apple": Mahua Moitra On Profanity In Parliament | Read
A defiant Mahua Moitra, Trinamool Congress MP, on Wednesday, said she "stood by" using an expletive against the BJP's Ramesh Bidhuri in parliament amid calls for an apology and action against her. "I've called an apple, an apple and I stand by it," she told reporters outside parliament, a day after controversy erupted over her comment. "This is a gentleman who has called farmers 'pimps'. It is on record, I have tweeted the video. The Honourable Minister for Urban Development Hardeep Singh Puri, in the Rajya Sabha, called Dr Shantanu Sen an absolutely offensive word," she said.
