in a surprising twist, Trinamool Congress MLA Humayun Kabir from Murshidabad has publicly retracted his earlier comments criticizing the police, just hours after making them. During a party event, Kabir had expressed concerns about police misconduct in local areas, claiming that citizens were being harassed. However, he later met with the Superintendent of Police and acknowledged that his remarks were inappropriate, emphasizing his role as a legislator within the state governance.
Kabir’s initial comments, made at a party gathering in Baharampur, targeted police actions in Lalgola, baranagar, and other localities, suggesting that these actions were detrimental to the public. He lamented that if he were in the opposition, he would have acted swiftly against such issues. However, as a member of the ruling party, he felt constrained, stating that he was “handcuffed” in his ability to effect change. This rapid reversal highlights the complexities of political accountability and the delicate balance between public criticism and party loyalty in indian politics.
