India Today
TMC MP Mahua Moitra took a jibe at the Centre over a booklet released by the Lok Sabha Secretariat banning the use of "unparliamentary" words.
The booklet released by the Lok Sabha Secretariat banning the use of "unparliamentary" words like 'jumlajeevi', 'baal buddhi’, ‘ashamed’, and ‘abused’ has stirred the pot by inviting the Opposition leaders to come up with different meanings of the words.
Trinamool Congress' Krishnanagar MP Mahua Moitra was the next after senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi to take a swipe at the Centre by relating it to the sexual harassment case against former chief justice of India Ranjan Gogoi.
"My first of new twitter series on replacements for unparliamentary words. Banned word-Sexual Harassment. Replacement - Mr. Gogoi," Moitra said in a tweet.

Earlier in the day, Moitra, in a series of tweets, spoke against the government's new rule, asking why the list doesn't include the word 'sanghi'.
"You mean I can’t stand up in Lok Sabha & talk of how Indians have been betrayed by an incompetent government who should be ashamed of their hypocrisy?" she tweeted.
In another tweet, the TMC MP said, "Baith jaiye. Baith Jaiye. Prem se boliye. New list of unparliamentary words for LS & RS does not include Sanghi. Basically, govt taken all words used by Opposition to describe how BJP destroying India & banned them."
