‘Sorry, I Am Your Fan’: Mahua Moitra Apologises To X User After Her PR Team Blocks Him Amid Uproar Over Kolkata Doctor’s Rape & Murder Case

TMC MP Mahua Moitra unblocked and apologised to an X user, @NarundarM, after her PR team blocked him on the microblogging site amid the uproar over the rape and murder of a woman post-graduate trainee (PGT) doctor at Kolkata’s RG Kar Medical College and Hospital in West Bengal.

Moitra, known for fiercely criticising the current dispensation at the Centre, went on a blocking spree on X after netizens, including some renowned journalists, questioned her about the deteriorating law and order situation in West Bengal.

After being blocked by Moitra on X, @NarundarM clarified in a tweet that he never followed the TMC leader or commented on her posts. The user advised Moitra to hire a better PR team.

In a tweet, @NarundarM said, “Thank you. I never followed you or commented on your posts, so it seems like you are searching and blocking people. Hire a better PR team, Mahua, because you will surely need it.”

In response to his tweet, Moitra apologised and said she has informed her PR team. She added that she is his fan and likes his posts and comments.

“Sorry. Told them. Btw I am a fan of yours and like your posts & comments,” wrote Moitra.

This comes soon after Ajit Anjum shared a photo earlier on Wednesday confirming that Moitra had blocked him after he asked her a question about the brutality against the doctor from Bengal.

“As soon as I tagged her with a question on the brutality against the doctor girl from Bengal, Mahua Moitra blocked me. wow madam wow. You ask harsh questions to Modi government everyday and when we asked a question to your government, you immediately blocked us. Can’t you hear a question? All you have to do is ask? Do you only know how to lecture on freedom of expression? A daughter has been brutalised during your rule and no questions are asked to you? Never mind, okay. That’s why people say- Even hypocrisy has its limits…,” Anjum wrote on X. 

बंगाल की डॉक्टर बिटिया के साथ हुई दरिंदगी पर एक सवाल के साथ टैग क्या किया , महुआ मोइत्रा ने मुझे ब्लॉक कर दिया .
वाह मैडम वाह .
आप हर रोज मोदी की सत्ता से तीखे तेवर के साथ सवाल पूछती हैं और हमने आपकी सत्ता से एक सवाल पूछ दिया तो आपने तुरंत ब्लॉक कर दिया .
आप एक सवाल नहीं सुन… pic.twitter.com/FhjTRMDhu7
