Trinamool Congress (TMC) Member of Parliament, Mahua Moitra, has approached the Supreme Court alleging that she was “evicted at dead of night” from the Nadia Circuit House in West Bengal. The lawmaker’s petition seeks urgent intervention from the apex court, highlighting concerns over the alleged abrupt removal from the government accommodation.
Ms. Moitra's lawyer has reportedly sought an immediate hearing of her writ petition under Article 32 of the Constitution. This constitutional provision allows individuals to directly petition the Supreme Court for the enforcement of their fundamental rights.
The lawyer argued that the matter requires urgent attention to protect Ms.
Moitra's fundamental rights against what is being termed as 'State action'.
The Supreme Court has acknowledged the plea for an early listing, indicating that it will review the request for an expedited hearing. The details surrounding the alleged eviction from the Nadia Circuit House remain central to the petition, with Ms.
Moitra seeking legal recourse to address the circumstances of her removal.
The case is expected to draw significant attention given the political stature of the petitioner and the nature of the allegations involving alleged infringements on fundamental rights.
