Mahua Moitra, a Member of Parliament from West Bengal, spoke at a United Nations body, stating that no Muslim officers attended the rallies organized by Amit Shah in the state. She pointed out that the absence was evident at events held in Kolkata and other locations during Shah’s visits.
Moitra’s remarks come amid heightened scrutiny of the BJP’s conduct in West Bengal, where the party has faced criticism for alleged communal bias. The MP said that the lack of Muslim representation at the events was a deliberate exclusion.
The statement was made during a session on political representation and inclusivity. It underscores the broader debate on how political rallies are managed in a diverse state like West Bengal.
