I faced them as freedom fighters faced bullets, says Mahua Moitra after eggs thrown at her

Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra on Wednesday (September 16, 2026) alleged that BJP workers pelted eggs at her during a visit to her Krishnanagar constituency in West Bengal’s Nadia.

In a series of posts on X, Ms. Moitra referred to an oral observation made by the Supreme Court last month when it had denied her permission to appear virtually before an investigating officer in a case over her allegedly provocative Facebook posts on the apprehension that she might be attacked with eggs.

“Big shout out to Hon’ble Justice Dipankar Datta! MiLord - I came to my constituency for a mtng [meeting] informing @WBPolice & BJP workers with their help pelted eggs on me. True to your advice I faced them as a freedom fighter faced bullets,” Ms. Moitra posted.
