Amid scorching temperatures across the nation, the fervor of the 2024 Lok Sabha election campaign has reached its peak. Political figures from various parties are traversing the country, undeterred by the blistering heat, to rally support for their respective causes. A particular moment during Trinamool Congress leader Mahua Moitra’s campaign has stirred significant online attention.
In a widely circulated video on X, formerly known as Twitter, a journalist is seen asking Moitra about her source of energy during the grueling campaign. Allegedly, Moitra’s response of “Sex” ignited controversy. However, the journalist, Tamal Saha, contested this claim on X, asserting that Moitra actually said “Eggs” in response to his question about her morning energy source. Saha denounced the manipulation of the audio to sensationalize the incident.

Despite Saha’s clarification and the posting of the full interview video, doubts lingered among some netizens regarding Moitra’s response. A few users pointed out Saha’s surprised reaction to Moitra’s supposed “Eggs” response, questioning the authenticity of his clarification.
Let me clarify, since this is my interview.
I asked @MahuaMoitra : What’s your source of energy in the morning.
Mahua Moitra replied : EGGS …(anda, dim)
This is ridiculous how the bhakt mandali has distorted it to make it sound like s*x. The audio is being tampered…

Furthermore, another video surfaced wherein Moitra commented on Bengalis being a “superior race” in response to a query about Bengali perspectives on religion. This remark triggered further backlash on X, with users criticizing Moitra for her statement.
