  • Down the Ages in Sikkim
    Journal of Global Literacies, Technologies, and Emerging Pedagogies Volume 5, Issue 2, December 2019, pp. 895-904 The Tsongs (Limbus) Down the Ages in Sikkim Dr. Buddhi L. Khamdhak1 Assistant Professor Department of Limboo, Sikkim Govt. College, Gyalshing, Sikkim. Abstract: The Limbus, Yakthungs or Tsongs, who have inhabited the Himalayan belt of Kanchanjanga since time immemorial, are one of the Indigenous people of Sikkim (India), Nepal, Bhutan, Burma, and Thailand. They are neither Nepalis by ethnicity nor Hindus by religion. Historically, linguistically, and culturally they have a distinct identity; however, over the centuries, they have been denied and deprived of Indigenous rights and justice. In this article, I will demonstrate the socio-cultural and linguistic conditions of Limbus in Sikkim prior, and during, the Namgyal/Chogyal reign. Then, I will argue how the Limbus were deprived of all their rights and justice in Sikkim. Keywords: Sikkim/Sukhim, Tsong, Yakthung, Lho-Men-Tsong-Sum, Chogyal, Citizenship Rights Introduction The Sikkimi Tsongs, Limbus or Yakthungs, are the Indigenous inhabitants of Sikkim. They are also commonly called “Tsong” by the Bhutias and Lepchas in Sikkim. The Limbus call themselves “Yakthung,” and they share very close historical and socio-cultural ties with 1 Dr. Buddhi L.

The total population of Limbus in Sikkim is 56,650, which is approximately 9.32% of the total population of the state (6,07,688 people according to the 2011 Census).

Upon arrival meet your accompanying escort and drive (90 km / 3 hours) to Darjeeling. Once the summer capital of India. The name Darjeeling is derived from 'Dorje Ling' (place of the thunderbolt). The area is stunning and quaint with its little villages, tiny waterfalls and even tinier toy train track. The tranquil environs of the surrounding hills offer a perfect setting for the tea estates and monasteries. Sep 21: Darjeeling / The Elgin (B, D) In the early dark hours of the morning, we drive one hour to Tiger Hill to see sunrise over the Himalayas. Wait with patience for an unforgettable experience of catching the black night turning lighter, suffusing with dull-red, then brilliant orange and bright gold as the sun rises over the peaks of the Kanchenjunga Range (27,500 feet). Return hotel for breakfast. Afterwards we ride the Toy Train one way to Ghoom, departing 10:40 am, arriving 11:30 am (subject to operation of the train). It is a treat to arrive at the train station sometime before the departure and watch them prepare the vintage steam engine for the journey. Only about four bogies and a vintage 1st class chair car are attached to this engine which still needs to stop mid way to fill up its tank with water and wait till it heats up enough to make steam.
