News India Live, Digital Desk: The colder the weather in Delhi is today, the more heated is the political atmosphere there. If you are following news and social media, then you must have seen that TMC’s firebrand leader Mahua Moitra is once again in the news. But this time the reason is not his speech in Parliament, but the huge drama that took place on the streets of Delhi.
What happened was that going on in West Bengal Clash between ED and TMC The fire reached Delhi. Mahua Moitra along with some of her colleagues had come to protest outside the office of Home Minister Amit Shah, but within no time the police took them into custody from there.
What happened there at that time? (The Ground Scene)
Mahua Moitra and her supporters demanded that the action being taken by the central agencies in Bengal is being done due to political malice. The protesters were raising slogans against “misuse of ED”. The situation became more complicated when Mahua sat on strike near Shah’s office.
It became a challenge for the police to maintain security. When the protest did not stop even after repeated warnings, Delhi Police Mahua Moitra detained I had to take him and put him in the car. Social media is full of videos where a heated argument is taking place between Mahua and the policemen.
How did this ‘battle’ of Bengal reach Delhi?
Actually, this fight is not for today. TMC has been continuously accusing the Center of using CBI and ED as “weapons” as elections approach or there is political instability in West Bengal. On the other hand, the Center and BJP say that this is only an independent investigation against corruption.
Mahua Moitra, who is known for her outspokenness, has reached Delhi and tried to make it a straight issue of “Centre vs Bengal”.
What will happen next now?
After Mahua’s detention, TMC workers have taken to the streets from Kolkata to Siliguri. Political experts believe that such incidents further increase polarization among supporters. On one hand, the opposition unity (INDIA Alliance) is seen with Mahua on this issue, while on the other hand, Delhi Police has cited violation of Section 144 and law and order.
The truth is that until the investigating agencies do not give the message of doing their work with complete impartiality, and the leaders keep raising questions on those investigations, similar conflicts and ’emergency like situations’ will continue to be seen on the streets of Delhi.
What do you think? Was it justified for Mahua Moitra to protest like this directly outside the Home Minister’s office, or should law and order be given priority?
