Ethics Committee findings leak is breach of Parliament, alleges Mahua Moitra

New Delhi: Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra has written a letter to the Lok Sabha speaker about the draft report of the Ethics Committee for alleged 'Cash for Query' row, being leaked to media. 

In a social media post on X, Mahua Moitra posted her letter to Lok Sabha speaker Om Birla and said "Have not received any replies from my previous letter to Lok Sabha speaker but am placing this on record anyway."

"A very serious breach of rule 275 (2) contained in the rules of procedure and conduct of business in the Lok Sabha where the draft report by the Committee on Ethics on the subject of Unethical Conduct by Mahua Moitra, MP, was accessed by a media channel on November 8, a day before it is to be placed before the Committee" the TMC MP alleged.

"It is even more shocking because this media channel is majority owned by the Adani group, against whom I have raised very serious issues of corporate fraud and breach of financial and securities regulations, in the Lok Sabha. I have been targeted for speaking out against this corporate giant and it is absolutely shocking how a channel owned by this group has access to a confidential Committee report which is the subject of my alleged unethical conduct," Mahua Moitra further alleged.

She further stated in her letter that this is totally a breakdown of the rules of the Lok Sabha. (ANI)
