After being trolled online for sporting 'western clothes', Mimi Chakraborty slams critics for not targeting Gautam Gambhir

Mimi Chakraborty, a popular Bengali actress was elected to the Parliament from Jadavpur seat, and she made the observation while reacting to a post by journalist Swati Chaturvedi.

Swati tweeted: "Has the fashion police attacked Gambhir yet? Or only for the women? I think @GautamGambhir is looking great."

Mimi said: "No they didn’t ma’am its only bcoz we r women probably but @GautamGambhir  looks great."

Swati was making reference to an image where Gautam, who could be seen sporting a t-shirt and jeans, standing infront of the Parliament and holding his identity card.

Gautam won the Lok Sabha polls from East Delhi Lok Sabha seat.

Two Trinamool Congress (TMC) first-time MPs, Mimi Chakraborty and Nusrat Jahan, reached the parliament on Monday but was brutally trolled for posing in front of camera in glamarous outfits.

Chakraborty and Jahan, the two prominent contemporary Bengali film actresses, fought and won the Lok Sabha polls from West Bengal's Jadavpur and Basirhat constituencies respectively.

Chakraborty shared a picture on Instagram where she could be seen standing outside the parliament. She captioned the picture saying, "Remember your dreams and fight for them🙏"But the netizens did not spare her from trolling.

But this is not the first time the two young MPs are trolled. Both Chakraborty and Jahan faced heat on social media after they were nominated as the Lok Sabha poll candidates by TMC chief Mamata Banerjee.

Even several people raised question as to how "elite people" of Jadavpur elected Chakraborty, who was embroiled in several controversies during her campaign, as their representative.

When IBNS had asked her about the controversies, Chakraborty said: "Firstly I don’t care about what people are saying and also the trolls and memes, because I am unstoppable. Nothing in the world can stop me from doing what I want to do. I don’t want to give any kind of importance to stupid, insane people by saying something about them. I don’t want to give undue importance to such people."

Chakraborty had courted a controversy after she was found wearing gloves while shaking hands with some people and using a towel to sit on a rickshaw, raising questions on her "mass representative" image.

CPI-M leader Surjya Kanta Mishra had raised question on the candidature of Jahan whose name had come to the headlines during the Park Street rape case, which was termed as a "made-up event" by West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee.

Amid all the controversies, trolls and criticisms, both the actresses made their way to the parliament despite TMC's dismal performance in the polls. The TMC managed to win only 22 seats while the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) made a deep inroad in West Bengal by winning 18.

While Jahan had won by a margin of 3,50,369 votes, Chakraborty won by 2,95,239 votes.
