All India Trinamool Congress Member of Parliament (MP) Mahua Moitra on Tuesday told the Delhi High Court that she wanted to drop media houses from the defamation suit she had filed in the “cash for query” controversy.
BJP MP Nishikant Dubey, had on October 15, complained to Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla that Ms. Moitra took bribes from a business house to ask questions in Parliament.
The complaint cited a letter from advocate Jai Dehadrai to accuse Ms. Moitra of “breach of privilege, contempt of the house, and criminal offence”.
