In a controversial move ahead of the 2026 West Bengal Assembly elections, suspended Trinamool Congress (TMC) leader and Bharatpur MLA Humayun Kabir has struck a defiant note regarding his plan to build a ‘Babri Masjid’ in Murshidabad. Now the founder of the Janata Unnayan Party (JUP), Kabir argues that the Supreme Court never barred rebuilding the mosque elsewhere. He justifies the location by citing demographics, stating that West Bengal has a ‘37% Muslim population’ while Murshidabad has ‘72%’. The report highlights the political friction, with TMC General Secretary Abhishek Banerjee dismissing the move and urging politicians to focus on ‘building schools and hospitals’ instead. While Kabir claims to be in talks with the Indian Secular Front (ISF) and AIMIM for a potential alliance, the ISF has denied any formal pact. The segment explores whether this is a strategy to shift the minority vote bank away from the ruling TMC.
