TMC MP Mahua Moitra alleged that Nadia district authorities ordered her to leave the Krishnanagar circuit house late on Friday night, hours after she checked in for an overnight stay. She said a crowd outside shouted “Jai Shri Ram” after she refused to vacate and claimed the action was meant to intimidate her.
Moitra posted a purported order saying the circuit house would be unavailable from the evening of August 14, 2026, for maintenance, while bookings confirmed before August 13 would be exempt. She said her room was allotted before that cut-off. The district authorities did not immediately respond. Moitra linked the incident to her plea for protection after alleged egg-pelting attacks on TMC leaders and recent Supreme Court remarks about facing police proceedings in person.
The loudest versions will present this either as proof of political persecution or as a routine maintenance order being dramatised. Neither is established by the available account. The key facts are whether Moitra’s booking preceded August 13, why officials asked her to leave after check-in, and whether the crowd was organised to intimidate her. The district administration’s written explanation, backed by booking records and maintenance logs, should settle the matter better than slogans on either side.
