SIKKIM it’s the Ghising ‘hukum’ that they follow HOTEL BAYUL, MG MARG, GANGTOK BIRENDRA S. DARJEELING, 04 May: The GNLF today launched its campaign trail with its first ever rally and public meeting for the forthcoming MP elections. The meet- ing was organized to make public their stand regarding support to the Congress and to make people aware of the reasons behind this unprecedented move given the fact that GNLF has boycotted the last two MP elections in the Darjeeling Hills on issues which still remain unresolved. Despite the expressed aim to inform the people of the reasons behind its current stand, the Darjeeling Branch Committee of the GNLF, the organizer of today’s fanfare, seemed quite a confused lot and could come up only with theo- ries to explain the Supremo Subhash Ghising’s decision. It was mainly the Gorkhaland dream that the leaders harped on. It appears that the exit polls had played a major role and the GNLF drew the conclusion that if the Congress managed to come to power at the Centre, Gorkhaland would also come a step closer. Though the GNLF has preferred to remain silent on the Gorkhaland demand till now, its leaders today blamed the NDA Government for not fulfilling the demand. “During the NDA rule, states like Uttaranchal, Jharkhand and Chattisgarh were created, nothing was done to create a separate state of Gorkhaland,” said Deepak Gurung, president of the Branch Committee. He also went on to state that only the Congress was sympathetic to the Gorkhaland cause since it was during the tenure of Late Rajiv Gandhi that the DGHC was formed. turn to pg 4 CMYK 2; NOW!; 05 May, 2004 ED-SPACE Chinamen Eat Snakes! -47- and to have things as he wished my sahib how she was fighting me NOW! y master considered them.
