Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra has claimed that the Nadia district administration ordered her to vacate her room at the Krishnanagar Circuit House late on Friday night. She said the Additional District Magistrate called at 9:47 pm asking her to leave, and later sent a written order. Moitra refused, alleging that a crowd outside was chanting Jai Shri Ram to intimidate her. She called the attempt harassment. Moitra, who had appeared before Nadia Police earlier that day in a hate speech case, is a Lok Sabha MP from Krishnanagar. Opposition leaders including Abhishek Banerjee raised concern for her safety. The administration issued a notice stating the circuit house was closed for annual maintenance from August 14, but Moitra said her reservation predated that order and she would not vacate.
