Talking inside the state Assembly, Adhikari said that two FIRs were made against Kabir at the Shaktinagar and Rejinagar police stations, where the comments were allegedly made in two separate rallies in June.
“I am telling you that no one has given you this power to make such sensitive communal comments. This will be his last such remark. He will have to think 25 times before making such comments in future. Those who have organised such rallies will also be booked,” said Adhikari.
Kabir remarks at rallies
Notably, ahead of Rejinagar bypolls, Kabir in Shaktinagar had said, “The day I mobilise thousands of Muslims and take to the streets, I will strike so hard that there won’t be anyone to carry Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)’s flag. It is good that BJP has won and come to power but one Anamika Ghosh despite losing the polls is behaving as if she is the MLA.”

It can be recalled that ahead of the Assembly elections, Trinamool Congress (TMC) had shared a purported video where Kabir was heard saying that he had made a deal with the BJP of about Rs 200 crore to divide Muslim votes of the TMC. The saffron camp had earlier, however, rubbished the claims.
Response to criticism
Talking to the media after being slammed by the Chief Minister, Kabir said if someone attacks him, he won’t greet back with ‘Rashgullas’.
