If they in their Hindi finds the word to mean something else — about mother and father — not my problem,” the Lok Sabha MP said in an interview. “If the shoe fits, wear it,” Moitra said adding that many BJP MPs praised her for giving it back to Delhi BJP MP Ramesh Bishuri. “I am not saying right or wrong. What I am saying is you don’t give me protection in the House and then you are roasting me. I don’t care. If you want to make a heroine out of me, good luck to you. I don’t care,” the Lok Sabha MP said.

Second, my speech ended and Ram Naidu was speaking and still, the man did not shut up. So I called him the name because what he was doing is forbidden,” Mahua Moitra said.
