Mahua Moitra went beyond all limits of decency, talked about her personal life, says Ethics Committee member

Moitra stormed out of the Lok Sabha Ethics Committee meeting. She had alleged that she was asked irrelevant questions about her personal life during the committee's hearing. Issuing a clarification on the same, Sonkar was quoted by the Hindustan Times as saying, "Only those questions were asked to Mahua Moitra on which there are allegations.

She was given the right to give answers to those questions she wanted and not give those she did not wish." "...only to create obstacles in the investigation, this ruckus was created by her. The kind of words she used for the chairman and members of the ethics committee do not suit an MP or a woman... She wanted to avoid giving answers and create obstacles in the investigation...," Sonkar swas quoted as saying.

Meanwhile, Aparajita Sarangi, BJP MP and member of the Parliament Ethics Committee said, "...She (Moitra went beyond all limits of decency). Sarangi alleged that Moitra "spoke for more than one hour and she talked about her personal life in which I don't think anybody was interested". This allegation came in contrast with Moitra's claims that she was the one who was asked irrelevant questions about her personal life during the hearing.

In a video shared by news agency ANI, Sarangi can be heard saying, "We had invited Mahua Moitra and she was supposed to answer our questions. Chairman asked few questions and the Chairman limited his questions to the affidavit submitted by Darshan Hiranandani. So there was no question of going beyond the limits or rather the contents of the affidavit." "Mahua Moitra spoke for more than 1 hour and she talked about her personal life in which I don't think anybody was interested," the committee member added.
