Kolkata: A local court in Nadia district, West Bengal, issued an arrest warrant against Trinamool Congress (TMC) Member of Parliament Mahua Moitra. The court issued the order after Moitra failed to attend required hearings in a case involving alleged hate speech. 
The Third Judicial Magistrate at the Krishnanagar Court signed the legal directive. The magistrate noted that the court had sent multiple summonses to the lawmaker in recent weeks. These official notices directed her to appear before the bench in person. Because Moitra did not attend the scheduled hearings, the magistrate ordered police officers to execute the arrest warrant immediately.
The legal case centers on allegations that Moitra made offensive statements against women and delivered hate speech during public remarks. A complainant filed the matter before the local judiciary. Following the filing, the court initiated pre-cognisance proceedings to examine the complaint. These proceedings require the named person to appear before the judge so the court can review the initial allegations.
The Krishnanagar court set a firm timeline for law enforcement authorities. The judge ordered police officials to execute the warrant and submit a formal compliance report by August 28. This report must describe the specific steps that officers took to carry out the court directive.
Mahua Moitra represents the Krishnanagar parliamentary constituency in the Lok Sabha. Indian legal procedure requires citizens and public officials to answer judicial summonses in a timely manner. When a person repeatedly misses scheduled hearings without a valid legal exemption, judges issue warrants to secure their presence in court. This legal step ensures that judicial proceedings move forward without unnecessary delay.
Police officers must now act on the judicial order and present their official report before the August 28 deadline. The Krishnanagar court will decide the next course of action once the magistrate reviews the update from law enforcement.
