- Hindi speaking people hate Trinamool: Nishikant Dubey
- Attack on Bihar’s self-esteem, not mine: Dubey
- Nishikant Dubey was not present at the meeting: Mahua Moitra
In a meeting of the Parliamentary Committee on Information Technology (IT), Trinamool Congress MPs used insulting words against him, said Nishikant Dubey. Dubey has accused Mahua Moitra, a Trinamool Congress MP from West Bengal, of calling him a “Bihari goonda”.
‘Never seen such words used’
This is my 13th year as an MP. However, Nishikant Dubey said that he had never seen such unparliamentary language being used.
I come from Jharkhand. I was addressed as a ‘Bihari goonda’ by a woman Trinamool MP in a parliamentary committee meeting. The Trinamool Congress has an allergy to Hindi speaking people, so they called me a ‘Bihari goonda’. This is an attack on Bihar’s self-esteem. I have informed the President about this. Mahua Moitra should apologize, BJP MP Nishikant Dubey told the media.
Mahua Moitra denied the allegations
‘How can I insult anyone in this meeting if the committee meeting is not held due to insufficient members present? They were not even present for the meeting. Such an explanation was given by Mahua Moitra. Check the attendance sheet! ‘ Such an explanation was given by Mahua Moitra.
BJP MPs boycott parliamentary committee meeting
Dubey, meanwhile, told the Lok Sabha on Wednesday that he had issued a privilege violation notice against Shashi Tharoor, the head of Parliament’s Standing Committee on Information Technology. Notably, a meeting of the Standing Committee on Information Technology was held on Tuesday. The BJP MP had left the meeting even before it started, saying he was not informed about the agenda of the meeting. If the Parliament cannot function due to the confusion of the Opposition, how will the Parliamentary Committee do its work? He had boycotted the meeting saying that.
