Humayun Kabir—who rose to prominence in West Bengal’s Murshidabad district in connection with the Babri Masjid issue—is currently maintaining a lead in the Nowda constituency. He has secured a total of 6,405 votes so far and is ahead by a margin of 2,890 votes.
It is worth noting that he is trying his luck in the electoral arena by contesting under the banner of his own independent party. He founded the Amra Janata Unnayan Party (AUJP) following his split from the TMC. Consequently, he is contesting the elections from both the Rejinagar and Nowda Assembly constituencies.
22 Candidates Fielded by Humayun Kabir’s Party
Humayun Kabir’s party, the AUJP, has fielded candidates across a total of 22 Assembly seats. Humayun Kabir has expressed optimism that his party will secure victory in at least 5 to 8 of these seats. The Nowda constituency, in particular, features a contest among four prominent figures: Sahina Momtaz Khan (TMC), Rana Mondal (BJP), Matiur Rahman (INC), and Humayun Kabir (AUJP).
