Who is Mahua Moitra?
Moitra has been at the centre of controversy on several occasions, and in some cases, it even forced her party to officially distance itself from her statements. Once in 2022, Moitra commented on goddess Kali at a conclave hosted by India Today. Her comments caused a huge uproar and FIRs in multiple states were registered against her. Also, Moitra has been a vocal critic of some sections of the media, which has led to her being even getting boycotted by them on a few occasions.
