Union Minister and BJP leader Sukanta Majumdar, while protesting against incidents of violence during an anti-Waqf Act demonstration, used the Islamophobic slur ‘madrasa-chap’ to refer to West Bengal Minister Siddiqullah Chowdhury. He claimed that those opposing the protest did not understand the Waqf Act and cited Chowdhury as an example, alleging that ‘madrasa-chap’ individuals lack the capacity to understand it. He further alleged that Murshidabad, a Muslim-majority region, does not uphold secularism, pluralism, or adhere to the Indian Constitution.
