Humayun Kabir Plans Dubai Move After Son's Defeat in Rejinagar Bypoll
Following his son's defeat in the Rejinagar bypoll, AJUP leader Humayun Kabir announced plans to move to Dubai on a 10-year golden visa after completing a mosque in Murshidabad by December 2028. The BJP candidate Shankharavh Sarkar won the Muslim-majority seat by over 75,000 votes. Kabir alleged that Chief Minister Suvendu Adhikari and local police influenced the election outcome, a claim not independently verified. The mosque's foundation stone was laid in December 2025.
