Former Trinamool Congress leader and Janata Unnayan Party chief Humayun Kabir has today made a sharp counterattack on Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath’s statement on Babri Masjid. 10 February 2026 Humayun Kabir said that he will definitely build a mosque replica of Babri Masjid in Murshidabad and no one can stop him. He directly challenged Yogi Adityanath and said, ‘I will build a mosque, if you can stop me then stop me.’ This controversy has intensified before the assembly elections in West Bengal, where communal issues have started heating up again.

Humayun gave open challenge to CM Yogi

Humayun Kabir told news agency ANI in Murshidabad that this is not Lucknow or Uttar Pradesh, this is Bengal and Mamata Banerjee rules here. He said that under the Indian Constitution, Muslims also have the right to build a mosque, just like others build temples or churches. Humayun Kabir announced that he had laid the foundation of the mosque on 6 December 2025, on the anniversary of the demolition of the Babri structure, and now the construction work will start from 11 February 2026. He said that around 1,200 people will start the work at 10 am while reading the Quran. Humayun challenged Yogi that if he has to be stopped, then he should do so, but he is not afraid and will not accept any pressure.

Babri Masjid will not be built till Doomsday: Yogi

Yogi Adityanath gave a very strict statement regarding the Babri structure in a meeting in Barabanki today. He said that the reconstruction of Babri Masjid will not happen even till the day of doomsday, because the day of doomsday will never come. Yogi said that those who are dreaming of doomsday, they will rot within no time and their dream will never be fulfilled. Referring to the Ram temple, he said that we had promised that Ram Lala would come and build the temple there, today the temple has been built there.

CM Yogi also targeted opportunists and those doing politics in the name of Ram. He said that Lord Ram has forgotten such people and those who opened fire on Ram devotees will find no place. Yogi also mentioned Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s hoisting of the saffron flag in Ayodhya and said that it shows the strength of Sanatan Dharma.

Controversy related to 1992 Babri Masjid incident

This dispute is related to the demolition of Babri Masjid in 1992, when kar sevaks demolished the structure. The Supreme Court had ruled in 2019 that a Ram temple would be built there and the Sunni Waqf Board would be given 5 acres of land elsewhere. Ram temple has been inaugurated in 2024. Humayun Kabir was earlier in Trinamool Congress, but later got suspended and formed his own party. He said that this is his personal decision and a constitutional right. After Yogi’s statement, Hindu organizations have also protested and posters have been put up at some places that he will reach Murshidabad.

Elections are near in West Bengal, so this issue is increasing political tension. Humayun Kabir says that everyone in Bengal has rights under the Constitution and Yogi cannot do anything here. Yogi’s statement is going to strengthen BJP’s Hindutva policy. There may be more statements and protests on this in the coming days.

Opposition parties in the Lok Sabha have today given notice of no-confidence motion against Speaker Om Birla. This notice has been given under the leadership of Congress and it has signatures of about 118 to 119 MPs. The opposition alleges that the Speaker is being biased and is not giving the opposition MPs a chance to speak. Due to this, there has been an uproar in the Parliament for several days and the proceedings of the House are being adjourned again and again.

How was the notice issued against the Lok Sabha Speaker?

This notice has been given under Article 94 of the Constitution and Rule 200 of the Lok Sabha. It has been signed by MPs from parties like Congress, Samajwadi Party and DMK. But Trinamool Congress (TMC) did not sign this notice. Congress leader Rahul Gandhi also did not sign this notice, even though he is the leader of the opposition.

After receiving the notice, Speaker Om Birla said that the Lok Sabha Secretariat will investigate this notice and take further action as per the rules. He has given instructions to process it as soon as possible. But the opposition says that this step is necessary to protect democracy, because the speaker’s attitude is suppressing the opposition.

What happens after notice against Lok Sabha Speaker?

1. Scrutiny of Notice: First of all the Lok Sabha Secretariat will check this notice. If it is found correct as per the rules, it will be accepted. In this, signatures of at least 50 MPs are required, which has been completed here.

2. Bringing the Motion to the House: If the notice is accepted, the Speaker or Deputy Speaker will bring it for debate in the House. The Speaker himself cannot preside over this debate, so the Deputy Speaker or any other member will sit in the chair.

3. Discussion and Voting: This proposal will be discussed in the House. Voting will take place after this. To pass the proposal, a simple majority (at least 272 votes) of the total membership of the House is required. At present the NDA alliance has the majority, so the chances of the proposal being passed are less. But if passed, the speaker will have to leave his post.

4. Time Limit: Generally, action should be taken on such notice within 14 days, but it depends on the situation in the House. If the House is running, it could happen soon.

This is not the first time such a step has been taken against the Speaker, but success is rare because the ruling party has the majority. This step of the opposition is mainly to draw attention and put pressure on the attitude of the speaker.

What is the whole matter?

Tension has increased in the Lok Sabha for the last few days between the opposition MPs and the ruling party. The opposition says that Speaker Om Birla did not allow him to speak on important issues. Rahul Gandhi did not get a chance to speak, due to which there was a lot of noise in the House. The opposition accused the Speaker of showing inclination towards the ruling party and suspending opposition MPs. In this anger, today at 1:14 pm, Congress MPs Gaurav Gogoi, Mohammad Javed and K Suresh have submitted this notice to Lok Sabha Secretariat General Secretary Utpal Kumar Singh.
