Am I watching a woman raising her voice or an MP being a voice for the citizens?
Omg! I just saw a LEADER. @MahuaMoitra 👏❤ https://t.co/SyQqYrTjfi
The reason this clip is so powerful is because in the overwhelmingly misogynistic country of India, a woman is speaking facts that many men dare not.

Every patriotic Indian must listen to her speech in which she invokes Rabindranath Tagore whose teachings are being selectively used by the BJP in its election tourism in West Bengal. https://t.co/NziPXnzVrf
@MahuaMoitra I salute your courage. 🙏🏼❤️🇮🇳
