Mahua can have her say today when LS takes up ethics report

Trinamool Congress member Mahua Moitra will defend herself on Friday as Lok Sabha discusses the ethics committee’s report recommending her disqualification from the House over cash-for-query charges. Speaker Om Birla informed TMC’s leader in the House Sudip Bandyopadhyay that Moitra’s case would be taken up on Friday noon. The opposition requested a discussion in the House, to which the Speaker agreed to allot half-an-hour. The INDIA bloc will boycott the voting on the resolution to expel Moitra and stage a walkout, protesting against the disqualification.
