Within 72 hours after writing to the Election Commission asking it to frame rules for enforcement agencies and to prevent them from taking coercive steps against candidates contesting the forthcoming Lok Sabha elections, Trinamool Congress leader Mahua Moitra today received an Enforcement Directorate summons for questioning in a Foreign Exchange Management Act (FEMA) contravention case. The ED notice asked Moitra, who is contesting from the Krishnanagar Lok Sabha constituency, to report at its Delhi office on Wednesday.
Mahua Moitra, who was expelled from the Lok Sabha in December for "unethical conduct", has been re-nominated by her party from West Bengal's Krishnanagar seat in the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.
