New Delhi, January 19
A day after she failed to get relief from the Delhi High Court, which refused to stay the notice by the Directorate of Estates (DoE), asking her to vacate her official bungalow, the expelled Lok Sabha MP from Trinamool Congress (TMC) Mahua Moitra has surrendered the residence. She vacated the bungalow on Friday morning, with her lawyer saying that no eviction took place.
The DoE, which comes under the Housing and Urban Affairs Ministry, had earlier this week issued an eviction notice to Moitra.
The TMC leader, who was expelled from the Lok Sabha on December 8 last year, was earlier asked to vacate the house by January 7 after her allotment was cancelled.
On January 8, the DoE issued a notice seeking her reply within three days as to why she had not vacated her government accommodation. Another notice was also issued to her on January 12.
