Mahua Moitra expulsion: Congress seeks 3-4 days to study panel report before Lok Sabha debate

Leader of Congress in Lok Sabha Adhir Ranjan Chowdhury has written a letter to Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla over the Ethics Committee report on TMC MP Mahua Moitra. In the letter, Chowdhury said that parliament members should be given at least three to four days to study the report and prepare themselves for the discussion in the House.

"I would request that Members may be given sufficient time of 3-4 days at least to study the report and prepare themselves for the discussion in the House. I would therefore request you to fix a day and time at least 3 days from now, for taking up the discussion in the Ethics Committee Report," the letter read.

The ethics panel's report has called Mahua's conduct highly objectionable, unethical, heinous and criminal and sought an institutional inquiry by the government.
