Trinamool leader Mahua Moitra was expelled from Lok Sabha based on the recommendations of the Ethics Committee probe report on cash-for-query charges against her. The report revealed that Moitra had taken bribes and gifts from businessman Darshan Hiranandani to ask questions in Lok Sabha targeting the Adani group. She shared her parliamentary login credentials with Hiranandani, and her account was accessed from multiple locations in one day. The opposition members staged a walk-out after a brief debate over the report. Speaker Om Birla rejected Trinamool's plea to allow Moitra to speak in her defense.
