TMC MP's comment draws BJP anger

Participating in a debate on 75 years of the Constitution, Moitra attacked the Bharatiya Janata Party for allegedly targeting government institutions and opposition leaders in a bid to scuttle critical voices. During her speech, she made a passing reference to justice Loya's death in 2014.

After the TMC MP finished her speech, BJP's Nishikant Dubey raised the issue. He also objected to Moitra's criticism of former Chief Justice of India DY Chandrachud, who recently retired, for a host of reasons, including receiving Prime Minister Narendra Modi at his residence during the Ganapati festival.
