The lawmakers have also been accused of financial irregularities and conspiring to split the party.
MPRF-D also decided to seek clarification from another party lawmaker Sanjay Sah by publishing a notice in newspapers as he is out of contact, said Ramjanam Chaudhari, Chief Whip of the party.
“We have decided to publish a notice in newspapers in this regard as Sah is out of contact,” Chaudhari told Republica.
Lawmakers duo Begum and Mandal have accused of the party of asking irrelevant questions. They said the questions over their property are completely irrelevant.
“If anyone can prove my involvement in financial irregularities I am ready for self immolation,” Mandal added.
Sah couldn´t be reached for comments.
The MPRF-D decided to seek clarification from the lawmaker trio following recommendation of the party´s disciplinary committee on Friday.
The disciplinary committee of MPRF-D has already recommended CC to relieve Sah of his party responsibilities and to recommend the parliament secretariat to terminate his CA membership.
