West Bengal: Suspended TMC MLA Humayun Kabir Launches Janata Unnayan Party, Vows To Defeat Mamata

Suspended Trinamool Congress (TMC) MLA Humayun Kabir has launched a new political outfit, the Janata Unnayan Party (JUP), ahead of the West Bengal Assembly elections. Speaking at the launch in Murshidabad, Kabir issued a direct challenge to the ruling party, stating, 'Mamata Banerjee will not be in power the next day... She will not be able to cross the 100 mark.' The rebel leader, who was suspended earlier this month following his controversial pledge to construct a replica of the Babri Masjid, named Manisha Pandey as the party's candidate for the Murshidabad assembly seat. The report highlights Kabir's potential alliance with AIMIM chief Asaduddin Owaisi, signaling a significant threat to the TMC's minority vote bank in the state.
