In an exclusive interview with India Today, TMC MP Mahua Moitra claimed that Gautam Adani approached her twice in the last 3 years via multiple Lok Sabha MPs to work out a 'deal' so that she didn't raise certain questions in the Parliament, which she refused. This is amid the ongoing cash-for-query row against her. Moitra said she never met Adani directly so doesn't know why he offered her the price. She alleged being told last week to stay quiet for 6 months till elections and even if attacking Adani, don't take the PM's name. Moitra claimed she was messaged to end this and that everything would be fine post-polls. Her remarks come as she denies allegations of taking money to ask pre-arranged questions in Parliament.
