TMC MP Mahua Moitra slams Parliament order on strikes, dharnas

Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra on Friday slammed the order issued by Parliament which said members cannot use the premises for dharnas or strikes.

“Why not just remove Gandhiji’s statue from the premises? And erase Article 19(1a) of the Constitution,” she said.

Article 19(1a) of the Indian Constitution says all citizens have the right to freedom of speech and expression.
