BJP's Poonawalla Slams TMC's Kabir Over Babri Masjid Remarks

BJP spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla criticized TMC MLA Humayun Kabir for his controversial statement on building a Babri Masjid in West Bengal, accusing him of appeasement politics. Poonawalla labeled Kabir's actions as provocative, causing tensions amid ongoing debates on religious freedom and political motivations.

BJP national spokesperson Shehzad Poonawalla launched a fierce verbal attack on Trinamool Congress (TMC) MLA Humayun Kabir for his suggestion to construct a Babri Masjid in West Bengal, branding it as vote-seeking appeasement politics.

Poonawalla accused Kabir of using controversial remarks to demean Hindus and secure votes, aligning the TMC's approach as being dismissive of Hindu sentiments.

Kabir, amidst brewing controversy, announced plans to lay the mosque's foundation stone in Murshidabad on December 6, while Congress leader Udit Raj defended him, citing religious freedom and challenging critics for their speculative challenges.
