An FIR was registered in the matter after the Women’s Commission had lodged a complaint with the Delhi police on July 5.
As per media reports, the Intelligence Fusion and Strategic Operations (IFSO) unit of the Delhi Police Special Cell will be investigating the matter.
Pajama remark
On July 4, NCW chief Rekha Sharma went to Hathras to meet the women who were injured in the tragic stampede that claimed 121 lives. Videos showed the NCW chief at the stampede site with someone holding an umbrella for her.
Reacting to the video, several users on social media wondered why the NCW chief could not hold the umbrella herself.
The TMC MP triggered a major row after she reacted to one such post and took potshots at the NCW chief.
“She’s too busy holding up her boss’s pajamas,” Moitra had written, attacking Rekha Sharma, who is often accused by opposition parties of working for and at the behest of the BJP-led NDA government.
The commission reacted strongly to the TMC leader’s “derogatory, crude” remarks and sought strict action against her and filed an FIR on July 5.
Moitra’s remarks evoked strong reaction from Rekha Sharma, who called the TMC MP a “troll”.
“She is not interested in her work but just trolling people, and I don’t give my time to trollers,” the NCW chief said attacking Mahua Moitra. Rekha Sharma also clarified about the incident and said she was not inside the umbrella. “I didn’t ask for it nor did I realised that someone is carrying umbrella as there was so much rush & I was engrossed in the situation & talking to people,” the NCW chief said in a post.
Sharma also wrote letters to Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla and Delhi Police Commissioner Sanjay Arora over Moitra’s remark.
I am in Nadia: Moitra
Undeterred by the FIR, Moitra had launched a counter attack and dared the Delhi Police to come to Nadia in West Bengal and arrest her.
“Come on @DelhiPolice please take action immediately on these suo moto orders. Am in Nadia in case you need me in the next 3 days to make a quick arrest. I Can Hold My Own Umbrella,” Mahua wrote on X, responding to NCW’s tweet on her remarks.
Later in a post on X, Moitra shared several screenshots of Rekha Sharma’s old remarks against various leaders like Arvind Kejriwal, Sonia Gandhi and Lalu Prasad. She called Rekha Sharma a “serial offender” and sought an FIR.
