"Honour Died When Ramesh Bidhuri...": Danish Ali On Mahua Moitra Expulsion
NDTV
Danish Ali has been very critical of the way in which the Ethics Committee, of which he is a dissenting member, has handled Mahua Moitra's case.
Shortly after Trinamool Congress leader Mahua Moitra was expelled from the Lok Sabha - over allegations she took bribes, including Rs 2 crore in cash, from a businessman - Bahujan Samaj Party MP Danish Ali held a one-man protest outside Parliament to demand justice for his ex-colleague. #WATCH | On the expulsion of TMC's Mahua Moitra as a Member of the Lok Sabha, BSP MP Danish Ali says, "I've put this (poster) because the committee also mentioned me in its recommendation because I want to bring her justice...She wasn't given an opportunity..." pic.twitter.com/hYVouMWYXU
Mr Ali - a fiercely vocal dissenting member of the Ethics Committee that said "allegations of (Ms Moitra) accepting illegal gratification (are) clearly established and are undeniable - was seen with a placard hung around his neck - a poster that said "don't turn (the) victim into (the) culprit".
"I've put this (poster) because the committee also mentioned me in its recommendation... because I want to bring her justice. She wasn't given an opportunity...," Mr Ali told news agency ANI.
