Political Row: Yogi Adityanath Says “Babri Will Not Be Rebuilt,” Kabir Hits Back

Political and social tensions have intensified in Murshidabad, West Bengal, after an announcement regarding the construction of a new mosque in the name of the Babri Masjid. Humayun Kabir, chief of the Janata Unnayan Party and a former TMC MLA, formally declared that construction would begin at 12:00 PM at a proposed site in Beldanga, Murshidabad. Preparations, including a religious program and Quran recitation, were reportedly underway, with claims that lakhs of supporters could gather for the event. The announcement has triggered sharp political reactions. Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath stated that the Babri structure would never be rebuilt “until doomsday,” prompting a strong rebuttal from Humayun Kabir, who asserted his constitutional right to build a mosque and said the project would proceed in Bengal. Meanwhile, the Trinamool Congress (TMC) alleged that the move is politically motivated and could benefit the BJP ahead of elections, claiming external influence behind the announcement. On the other hand, cleric Maulana Shahabuddin Razvi urged leaders to avoid reigniting temple-mosque disputes, stating that the Ayodhya issue was settled by the Supreme Court and that focus should shift to employment and development instead. The development has reignited a broader national political debate.
