“Has it actually been fairly conducted..” TMC MP Nussrat Jahan on Moitra’s EC report

On the Ethics Committee report on TMC MP Mahua Moitra tabled in Lok Sabha, TMC MP Nussrat Jahan says, "It is not about how I see it, I think all of us are seeing it the way it is supposed to be seen. Has it actually been fairly conducted? We don't know. Because this Government hasn't been really fair when it comes to women. We have asked for a hard copy of the report. Our leader Sudip Bandyopadhyay has asked for it. After studying the report, we can come to a conclusion and when the discussion happens, we have all requested that Mahua must be given an opportunity to speak for herself and say whatever she feels because she is the most affected in this case."

Prime Minister Narendra Modi speaks at the Uttarakhand's Global Investors Summit 2023 in Dehradun. He says, "Recently the workers who were trapped in the Silkyara Tunnel were successfully rescued. I congratulate the government and administration of the state for the dynamic work done by them. If we as a nation do a similar SWOT analysis on India today, what do we find? We will see aspirations, hope, self-confidence, innovation and opportunity all around. In our country, it is believed that god pairs everyone, then why do those pairs go abroad to start their new journey (of married life). Just like the 'Make in India' movement a 'Wed in India' movement should be started. At least one wedding from the family should be done in Uttarakhand as part of the destination wedding, to make Uttarakhand a destination wedding spot."
