'Why Shouldn’t Humayun Kabir Be Arrested?': Bengal Governor To Mamata Banerjee Govt Amid Babri Row

West Bengal Governor CV Ananda Bose has told the state government that if estranged TMC MLA Humayun Kabir's statements are creating tension and risking a law-and-order problem, then why shouldn't he be arrested?

This came after Kabir sparked a fresh row on Tuesday as he doubled down on building a mosque modelled on the Babri Masjid in Murshidabad district and warned that NH-34 would be under “Muslim control" on December 6.

Kabir's Remarks Intensify Political Tensions

Kabir, the Beldanga MLA who has been signalling a break from the TMC for months and has spoken of launching his own political outfit, escalated matters during a media interaction. He accused the Murshidabad administration of being an “RSS agent" and warned officials not to “play with fire" if they tried to stop his programme.

“I said a year ago I will lay the foundation of the Babri Masjid in Beldanga. Why is your skin burning? Are you being run by the BJP?" he said. He also announced, “NH-34 will remain under my control, under the control of the Muslims."

He further added, “I will not break peace, but if anyone disrupts a peaceful programme, I am ready to respond. Bring thousands of police and fire, if you can."

His remarks come just months before the Assembly elections, making the political climate even more sensitive.

TMC Tries To Distance Itself

The Trinamool Congress moved quickly to distance itself from Kabir's statements. Siddiqullah Chowdhury, state minister and Bengal president of Jamiat Ulema-e-Hind, said a “new emotional atmosphere" was being created to push Bengal into a “dangerous climate."

He added, “Someone has provoked him. I do not see how this benefits the Muslims."

TMC MP Kalyan Banerjee downplayed Kabir's relevance, saying, “People of West Bengal trust Mamata Banerjee. Who says what does not matter. He has no importance."

Despite this, Kabir's continued presence in the party, even after earlier show-cause notices, is being viewed as a lapse in discipline at a critical time.

Opposition Slams Both TMC And Kabir

Speaking to PTI last week, Kabir repeated his plan, saying, “Yes, I will lay the foundation stone. The masjid will be bigger and inspired by the original structure."

The BJP accused the ruling party of enabling the situation. State president Samik Bhattacharya said, “The TMC is pushing Bengal towards chaos. These announcements are meant to provoke and polarise."

The CPI(M) also criticised the political fluidity in Bengal. Leader Saikat Giri said the situation showed how leaders frequently switch sides and ideologies for political gain.
