Did TMC MP Mahua Moitra really hide Louis Vuitton bag during price rise debate in Parl? Netizens believe viral video

In a video which went viral on Twitter Tuesday, Trinamool Congress (TMC)'s firebrand Lok Sabha MP Mahua Moitra is seen putting her bag under the table when her party colleague Kakoli Ghosh Dastidar starts speaking on the price rice in Parliament's lower house Lok Sabha.

As the video trended, which has not been verified by India Blooms independently, netizens are believing that Moitra, a staunch critic of the Modi government, hid her costly Louis Vuitton bag under the table.

In a sarcastic tweet, one user named Zahack Tanvir said, "India’s Leftist leader #MahuaMoitra hides her ₹160,000 ($2000) #LouisVuitton bag during the price rise debate in the parliament."

One Avantika Gupta said, "The term ‘mehengai’ was the cue to slip down the Louis Vuitton. I feel so sorryy for Mahua fans. 🤐🤦🏻‍♀️ Choosing this woman as your face of “freedom of speech (read:hypocrisy) & all that woke crapdom”? No need to dig up on anything. Your actions & lives are a meme."

Mantavya Chawla says, "And this female talks about inflation and common man suffering, keep your mouth shut @MahuaMoitra What you are carrying is yearly income of many in this country!"

Another user says, "What if thousands of hungry people sleep with an empty stomach! #corrupt #MahuaMoitra should have that super expensive Louis Vuitton bag!"
