Bengal: Humayun Kabir says he’ll quit politics as ā€˜BJP links’ return to haunt him


ā€œIĀ apologiseĀ toĀ theĀ peopleĀ ofĀ RejinagarĀ fromĀ allĀ walksĀ ofĀ life.Ā InĀ theĀ nearĀ future,Ā IĀ willĀ stepĀ awayĀ fromĀ politicsĀ andĀ everythingĀ else,ā€Ā KabirĀ said. HeĀ allegedĀ thatĀ votesĀ hadĀ beenĀ ā€œlootedā€Ā andĀ thatĀ hisĀ party’sĀ pollingĀ agentsĀ wereĀ preventedĀ fromĀ sittingĀ atĀ booths.Ā HeĀ alsoĀ accusedĀ theĀ policeĀ andĀ administrationĀ ofĀ helpingĀ theĀ BJP.

ā€œIĀ couldĀ notĀ protestĀ whenĀ votesĀ wereĀ beingĀ looted.Ā So,Ā whatĀ wasĀ theĀ point?Ā IĀ willĀ seekĀ theĀ opinionĀ ofĀ theĀ peopleĀ ofĀ Naoda.Ā IfĀ theyĀ giveĀ meĀ permission,Ā IĀ mightĀ evenĀ resignĀ asĀ anĀ MLAĀ andĀ quitĀ activeĀ politics,ā€Ā heĀ said.

KabirĀ wasĀ detainedĀ byĀ policeĀ forĀ aroundĀ 12Ā hoursĀ onĀ pollingĀ dayĀ afterĀ repeatedĀ confrontationsĀ withĀ officers.Ā FollowingĀ hisĀ release,Ā heĀ allegedĀ thatĀ heĀ hadĀ beenĀ detainedĀ becauseĀ theĀ BJPĀ knewĀ itĀ wouldĀ loseĀ theĀ election.Ā OnĀ Wednesday,Ā heĀ remainedĀ defiant,Ā directingĀ hisĀ angerĀ atĀ theĀ stateĀ governmentĀ andĀ theĀ police.

ā€œIĀ loatheĀ aĀ democraticĀ frameworkĀ whereĀ aĀ policeĀ officerĀ holdingĀ theĀ rankĀ ofĀ sub-inspectorĀ canĀ forciblyĀ pickĀ upĀ anĀ electedĀ MLAĀ andĀ detainĀ himĀ forĀ 12Ā hours.Ā IĀ willĀ alsoĀ stayĀ awayĀ fromĀ thisĀ policeĀ minister,Ā SuvenduĀ Adhikari,ā€Ā heĀ said.

KabirĀ alsoĀ declaredĀ thatĀ heĀ wouldĀ notĀ attendĀ theĀ AssemblyĀ whileĀ AdhikariĀ remainedĀ chiefĀ minister.Ā AtĀ anotherĀ point,Ā however,Ā heĀ suggestedĀ thatĀ heĀ mightĀ attendĀ sessionsĀ butĀ wouldĀ stayĀ awayĀ wheneverĀ theĀ chiefĀ ministerĀ wasĀ present.

TheĀ BJP,Ā meanwhile,Ā dismissedĀ Kabir’sĀ emotionalĀ appeal.Ā BJPĀ MLAĀ SajalĀ GhoshĀ accusedĀ himĀ ofĀ sheddingĀ ā€œcrocodileĀ tearsā€Ā andĀ said,Ā ā€œThisĀ isĀ HumayunĀ Kabir’sĀ dishonesty.Ā IĀ appealĀ toĀ theĀ peopleĀ ofĀ BengalĀ notĀ toĀ beĀ misledĀ byĀ theseĀ crocodileĀ tears.ā€

Kabir’sĀ politicalĀ journeyĀ hasĀ takenĀ himĀ throughĀ theĀ Congress,Ā theĀ TMCĀ andĀ theĀ BJPĀ beforeĀ heĀ returnedĀ toĀ theĀ TrinamoolĀ campĀ andĀ eventuallyĀ formedĀ theĀ AJUP.Ā HisĀ controversialĀ pledgeĀ toĀ buildĀ aĀ BabriĀ MasjidĀ propelledĀ himĀ intoĀ theĀ spotlightĀ andĀ helpedĀ consolidateĀ hisĀ imageĀ amongĀ sectionsĀ ofĀ theĀ MuslimĀ electorate.Ā EvenĀ whileĀ threateningĀ toĀ retireĀ fromĀ politics,Ā heĀ reiteratedĀ hisĀ commitmentĀ toĀ theĀ mosqueĀ project.

DuringĀ theĀ 2026Ā AssemblyĀ election,Ā hisĀ party’sĀ performanceĀ inĀ MurshidabadĀ becameĀ aĀ pointĀ ofĀ contention,Ā withĀ opponentsĀ arguingĀ thatĀ theĀ AJUPĀ drewĀ MuslimĀ votesĀ awayĀ fromĀ theĀ TMCĀ andĀ indirectlyĀ benefitedĀ theĀ BJP.Ā KabirĀ hasĀ deniedĀ thatĀ heĀ wasĀ deliberatelyĀ splittingĀ theĀ anti-BJPĀ vote.
