West Bengal: TMC MP Mahua Moitra Writes To Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla After Alleging Forced Eviction From Nadia Circuit House

On August 15, 2026, Trinamool Congress (TMC) MP Mahua Moitra addressed Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla in a letter, alleging that she was forced to leave a circuit house in Nadia. The MP also claimed she faced harassment from a large crowd outside the circuit house on Friday evening, who chanted slogans of 'Jai Shri Ram'. In the letter to the Hon'ble Om Birla, Moitra stated that she heard commotion around 11 pm outside the circuit house gate and that the administration had started pressuring her to vacate the premises since 10 pm.

The TMC MP urged the Speaker's office to protect the 74 women in the House from the harassment she experienced, emphasizing that any Women's Reservation Bill is a joke unless the women are safeguarded. Political leaders weighed in on the issue, with CPI(M) leader Md. Selim expressing his concern over the matter and State Panchayat Minister Dilip Ghosh challenging the TMC to chant 'Joy Bangla'.
