Suspended TMC MLA Humayun Kabir has sparked controversy by claiming Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee instructed him to make communal remarks during the 2024 elections. Kabir apologized for his past threats against Hindus, alleging the rhetoric was a tactic to secure Yusuf Pathan’s victory.
Justice S Srimathy said, “There is a clear attack on Hinduism by the Dravida Kazhagam, and subsequently, along with the DMK, for the past 100 years, to which the minister belongs. While considering the overall circumstances, it is seen that the petitioner had questioned the hidden meaning of the minister’s speech."
On 17th December, BJP IT Cell chief Amit Malviya shared a video on his X handle, showing Kirti Azad concealing an object in his hand and moving it towards his mouth.
