Suspended TMC MLA Humayun Kabir lays foundation stone of Babri Masjid-style mosque in Murshidabad

Overview

  • The suspended Trinamool Congress MLA said he will not quit as Bharatpur legislator after earlier indicating plans to resign.
  • TMC leaders said his seat in the West Bengal Assembly will be shifted away from the ruling benches to further distance the party from him.
  • Organisers reported more than Rs 1.3 crore counted so far for the Babri-style mosque through cash and QR-code donations, with additional sealed boxes yet to be opened.
  • Kabir’s team circulated a video of cash being counted and cited an Rs 80 crore pledge from an unnamed businessman, a claim not independently verified.
  • The Calcutta High Court declined to halt construction and directed the state to maintain order, as Kabir presses a Dec 22 party launch and talks up an AIMIM tie-up that CPI(M), Congress and ISF leaders publicly dismissed.
