BSP leader Danish Ali on TMC MP Mahua Moitra's expulsion: 'Gandhi's soul must be crying'

Reacting to TMC MP Mahua Moitra's expulsion from Lok Sabha, Bahujan Samaj Party MP Danish Ali held a one-man protest outside Parliament to demand justice for his ex-colleague.

Ali said, "Commitee also mentioned about me in one of the recommendations because I am standing there for the justice of Mahua Moitra."

He further said that everyone saw that Ramesh Bidhuri crossed the line and what he did but the Parliamentary Committee is not ashamed of that. Danish Ali also said that the boundaries of Parliament were crossed on September 21 when Ramesh Bidhuri hurled abuses at him.

The opposition leader also said, "On one side, the whole world saw how Ramesh Bidhuri (a BJP Lok Sabha MP) acted... was there no sense of honour or decorum in Parliament then? Why now? What is this?"

He also said, 'today Gandhi and Ambedkar's soul must be crying.'

The committee's report was presented before the Lok Sabha on Friday morning and after a brief but frantic hour of discussion in the afternoon, Mahua Moitra was expelled via a voice vote.
