TMC MP Mahua Moitra files defamation case against BJP's Nishikant Dubey amid furore over ‘cash for queries’ claim "The contents of the letter are a joke. It has clearly been drafted by some half-wit in the PMO who doubles up as a creative writer in the BJP's IT cell.
It sings paeans to Modi and Gautam Adani while linking every opponent of theirs to me and my alleged corruption," Moitra alleged. Further, attacking the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), the TMC leader said, "Paragraph 12 claims that Darshan gave in to my demands because he was fearful of displeasing me.
Darshan and his father run one of India's largest business groups and their recent projects in UP and Gujarat have been inaugurated by the CM of Uttar Pradesh and by the Prime Minister. Darshan accompanied the PM abroad as part of his business delegation very recently.
