TMC MP Responds To NCW Letter To LS Speaker On Moitra’s ‘Pajama’ Remark

NCW has written to the Lok Sabha Speaker OM Birla over TMC MP Mahua Moitra’s ‘Pajama’ comment on NCW Chief Rekha Sharma.

In a latest development into the matter Moitra has responded to the letter of NCW to Lok Sabha Speaker and  Delhi Police. Taking to the X, MP Mahua Moitra asked Delhi Police to take legal action against the suo motu order of NCW.

Notably, The National Commission for Women (NCW) has written to Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla accusing Trinamool Congress Lok Sabha MP Mahua Moitra of making ‘derogatory’ remarks against NCW Chairperson Rekha Sharma.

The event happened one day after Moitra made a comment on a video uploaded on X showing Sharma arriving in Hathras, Uttar Pradesh, where on Tuesday a stampede claimed 121 lives.

One person questioned why the NCW chief could not carry her own umbrella after seeing a video of a man walking behind Sharma and putting an umbrella over her.

Moitra commented on the post, saying, “She (Rekha Sharma) is too busy holding up her boss’s pajamas.”

An NCW statement said on Friday: “NCW takes suo motu cognizance of derogatory remarks by MP Mahua Moitra against Chairperson Rekha Sharma. These remarks violate women’s dignity and attract Section 79 of Bharatiya Nyay Sanhita, 2023.

“NCW strongly condemns and demands swift action and has written a formal letter to Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla. A formal letter has been emailed to Delhi Police for the same.”

Reacting to the NCW statement, TMC MP Moitra posted on X: “Come on @DelhiPolice please take action immediately on these suo motu orders. Am in Nadia in case you need me in the next 3 days to make a quick arrest. I Can Hold My Own Umbrella.”
