Dilip Ghosh said this

On AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi’s announcement of contesting the West Bengal Assembly elections with the Aam Janata Unnayan Party, BJP candidate from Kharagpur Sadar Assembly seat Dilip Ghosh said, “Now let’s see whom the public will like and whom the public will not like. In Bengal, people do not accept anyone very quickly. They will have to work, they will have to fight, only then people will accept them. In a democracy, everyone has the right to contest elections and form a party.”

West Bengal Politics: The stir has once again intensified in the politics of West Bengal. Humayun Kabir, who separated from Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee’s party Trinamool Congress (TMC) and formed Janata Unnayan Party (JUP), has announced to form a third front in the state. For this, he has invited the Left parties, Congress, ISF and Asaduddin Owaisi’s party AIMIM to come together.

Former TMC MLA and Janata Unnayan Party chief Humayun Kabir has said about the alliance with AIMIM that wait till February 15, after that everything will become clear.

‘Bengal now needs a third political option’
Humayun Kabir says that there is a need for a new and strong third option in Bengal politics. Speaking to NDTV, he said, “I have invited the Left, Congress, ISF and AIMIM. We have to be in the same boat against TMC. Many people are ready to come with us. The picture is still out.”

Left-Congress-ISF are currently maintaining distance
However, Left Front, Congress and ISF are currently maintaining distance from Humayun Kabir’s rally and initiative. According to sources, talks are going on between these parties and JUP, but no formal decision has been taken yet. Meanwhile, Humayun Kabir has also recently met Left Front Chairman Mohammad Salim in Kolkata.

The doors of the alliance will remain open till 15 February
According to sources associated with JUP, Humayun Kabir has decided to keep the doors of the alliance open till 15 February. He says that any party that wants to fight against both BJP and TMC can come on this platform. Meanwhile, the reconstruction of Babri Masjid in Beldanga is also to begin on February 11, where Quran will be recited by about 5000 people. Humayun Kabir is considering this as a big step towards strengthening his political and social hold.

Third Front debate intensifies again
At present, it is certain that Humayun Kabir’s Beldanga rally has once again intensified the discussion about the third front in Bengal politics. Now everyone’s eyes are fixed on the political events happening till February 15.

Due to a decision of Humayun Kabir, suspended MLA from Trinamool Congress (TMC) and founder of Janata Unnayan Party (JUP), he is facing allegations of discrimination. In fact, on Tuesday (December 23), he has removed Nisha Chatterjee, the declared candidate from Ballygunge in South Kolkata for the Bengal Assembly elections.

Humayun Kabir argues that the pictures and videos of Nisha Chatterjee on social media are not according to the image of his party and can send a wrong message among the public. Let us tell you that at the beginning of this month, Humayun Kabir has been suspended from TMC due to the decision to build Babri Masjid in Murshidabad. After this, he formed Janata Unnayan Party (JUP) on Monday and also announced the names of candidates for 8 assembly seats.

What did Humayun Kabir say in his clarification
Regarding withdrawal of Nisha Chatterjee’s name, Humayun said that I have seen some pictures and social media reels of Nisha. Seeing her, I felt that she should not be the candidate of our party. This will send a wrong message among the people. Kabir also indicated that a new female candidate for the Ballygunge seat will be announced soon and she may be from the Muslim community.

Nisha Chatterjee’s serious allegations
Nisha Chatterjee made serious allegations regarding this decision. He said that he was removed only because he is a Hindu. He said that suddenly things are being made about my video. Humayun Kaku himself had asked me to contest the elections, only then I became a candidate. Now questions are being raised. I was removed because I am a Hindu. Would this have happened if his party was truly secular?

Nisha Chatterjee said that she was in support of Humayun Kabir’s Babri Masjid plan from the beginning. Still such behavior happened. I am facing social embarrassment due to this incident. I am also considering legal action in this matter. Let us tell you that Humayun Kabir is MLA from Bharatpur. He was suspended by TMC on 4 December. This action took place after his announcement of building a mosque on the lines of Babri Masjid in Murshidabad.
