The Lok Sabha Ethics Panel that is probing TMC MP’s role in the case has sought the expulsion of Moitra. The committee on Thursday adopted a report on the case after two hearings.

Ethics Committee Chairman Vinod Sonkar told CNN-News 18, “Report is adopted. Some members tried to save her but the majority was in favour of adopting the report. Now the report is being sent to Lok Sabha Speaker.”
