Mahua Moitra, a Member of Parliament from West Bengal, has lodged a formal complaint with the United Nations, alleging that Muslim officers were systematically excluded from events organized by Union Home Minister Amit Shah in the state.

The MP said that at several of Shah’s visits, Muslim personnel were not invited to participate or attend, which she views as a breach of equal treatment and a form of discrimination.

The complaint was submitted to the UN Human Rights Office, requesting an investigation into the alleged exclusion and urging measures to ensure non‑discriminatory practices at state‑run functions.

The matter has drawn attention in West Bengal’s political circles, with opposition leaders calling for transparency and the government’s cooperation with the UN inquiry.
