In short

Women BJP MPs are planning to meet Lok Sabha Speaker Om Birla. They want action against Congress MP Bimol Akoijam after sexual harassment allegations, and the report says an FIR has been filed.

This matters because it could affect the MP’s political future and the case against him. The report does not say what the Speaker will do.
