Nishikant Dubey has made serious allegations against Ms. Moitra, asserting that she received money from businessman Darshan Hiranandani in exchange for posing questions in Parliament. These questions were apparently designed to target Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his business rival, the Adani Group. Dubey further alleged that Moitra compromised national security by sharing her parliamentary login credentials with the businessman.

In response to these allegations, Dubey submitted a letter to Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla, urging the immediate suspension of Ms. Moitra from her parliamentary duties. These claims have added to the controversy surrounding the Trinamool Congress MP.
