“People here are looking for a permanent political solution in the highest form of constitutional autonomy. They will vote in favour of BJP as it has always tried to accommodate the Gorkha aspirations in its political manifesto while the Bengal government has clearly stated that they oppose the idea of Gorkhaland,” he said.
१०५ दिन सम्म जरा, घाँस-पात खाएर । बिरामी हुँदा घोड्ताप्रे पिसेर, ओखतीको जरा कुटेर आन्दोलन गरि गोर्खाल्यान्डको आवाज विश्वव्यापी बनाइरहेको बेला बंगालले हाम्रो उर्जावान १३ जना गोर्खे भाई-बन्धु माथि बारुदको क्याप्सुल फ्याक्ने राज्य सरकारको कन्स्पिरेसीमा छ्याप्प फस्ने लुइतामे नेताहरुको विश्वास कसोगरी गरुँ भन त? अब त चाहेर पनि तिमी गोर्खाको चिन्हारी हेतु बोल्न सक्दैनौँ।
अनि कसरी विश्वास गरुँ राई बाजे तिमीलाई?
Gorkhaland is proposed statehood demand by the people of the hill regions of District Darjeeling Kalimpong and Duars area demanding a separate state from the Indian state of West Bengal within India.
Five “Bhumiputra” candidates yesterday filed their nominations for Darjeeling Lok Sabha seat, we wish all the son-of-the-soil candidates Good Luck
The youths and future of Darjeeling sadly stands in “Nali” and “Jhora,” not in building libraries for the children. Darjeeling stands here in “Ego” and “Clashes” not in Unification. Darjeeling stands here in “jobs for party flag bearer” not in conducting examination and competition for the jobs. Darjeeling stands for “ek bottle rakshi and masu vaat” not in making the people fully sustainable, and trained and equipped to earn. All this limitation and gaps exist because of the absence of Temple and the priests in our Darjeeling.
Some tea–gardens are planning not to vote at all. Every hill vote is important. Do not waste it. Names of favourites unlikely-to-be-voted are also being suggested as candidate. There can be only two parties fighting it out this election–TMC and the GNLF-GJMM original. It is clear what each means for the future. There are no more choices. So use your precious votes judiciously.
We have to make a well thought-out choice and cast our vote for a candidate and through our choices may weigh heavily upon us, we will at least have made one. At the struggle for the soul of our community intensifies, we simply do not have a choice but to make a choice.
‘Bhoomiputra’ has become the latest catchphrase for political parties in Darjeeling Hills.
Dear Gorkhas ,
Make sure people will know you by your present action and not by your history .
Be the sun that shines everywhere
Be it education, entertainment, sports, or politics
Business or social services
From dash to dash
