New Delhi, Nov 8: In response to his complaint over the ‘Cash for Query’ scam, BJP MP Nishikant Dubey claimed on Wednesday that Lokpal, the anti-corruption ombudsman, had ordered a Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) probe.
Nishikant Dubey posted on X, stating, “Lokpal today, based on my complaint, ordered a CBI inquiry against MP Mahua ji, who committed corruption by mortgaging national security.”
लोकपाल ने आज मेरे कम्प्लेन पर आरोपी सांसद महुआ जी के राष्ट्रीय सुरक्षा को गिरवी रखकर भ्रष्टाचार करने पर CBI inquiry का आदेश दिया

Previously, on October 21, Dubey filed a complaint against the leader of the Trinamool Congress with the Lokpal.
“(I am) tired of hearing CBI, CBI. I filed a complaint (against Mahua Moitra) with the Lokpal today. The Lokpal is the only authority that is mandated to look into complaints of corruption or impropriety against MPs, ministers, or other people’s representatives,” Nishikant Dubey had stated.
In response, Mahua Moitra once again implicated the Adani group in her rebuttal to the news of the CBI commencing an investigation.
“For media calling me, my answer is: 1. CBI needs to first file FIR on Rs 13,000 crore Adani coal scam 2. The national security issue is how dodgy FPI-owned (inc Chinese and UAE ) Adani firms are buying Indian ports and airports with Home Ministry clearance. Then CBI is welcome to come and count my shoes,” Moitra posted on X.

The Lok Sabha’s Ethics Committee, tasked with investigating the cash-for-query allegations against Trinamool Congress MP Mahua Moitra by BJP MP Nishikant Dubey, is set to convene on November 9 for the “consideration and adoption” of its draft report.
