In a dramatic political development in West Bengal, former TMC leader and AJUP founder Humayun Kabir has offered Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee a path back to the Assembly through a bypoll from Rejinagar. Kabir, who won both Nowda and Rejinagar in the 2026 Assembly elections, said he was willing to resign from Rejinagar and support Banerjee's candidature. He claimed she would struggle to win from Nandigram but could secure victory from his constituency. The offer marks a significant reversal from Kabir, who broke away from the TMC, founded the Aam Janata Unnayan Party, and became a vocal critic of Banerjee's government. Despite past differences, Kabir said her current political situation pains him and acknowledged that his political rise was made possible by her support.
