Overview

• The disciplinary committee handed Kabir a “last and final warning” inside the West Bengal Assembly on June 13 for comments said to embarrass party leadership.
• Parliamentary Affairs Minister Sobhandeb Chattopadhyay conveyed the notice, which was also signed by Aroop Biswas, Firhad Hakim and Chandrima Bhattacharya.
• Kabir’s unsubstantiated claim that some leaders maintained secret communication with Suvendu Adhikari drew demands from fellow MLAs for proof.
• This marks Kabir’s third formal notice of the year, following a March show-cause order and an earlier formal warning for similar anti-party remarks.
• Kabir’s history of inflammatory statements includes last year’s controversial comment about Hindus in Murshidabad, further testing the party’s tolerance for dissent.
