Kalimpong, January 23:
After the Telangana formation seems quite possible, the hills have also caught pace with its separate state demand. Voices are being raised, postering is being held, mass public meetings are being conducted, etc. On this context, the Gorkhaland Task Force (GTF) has made clear that their faction will always voice for Gorkhaland.
“With our without the Telangana issue coming under the spotlight, the GTF has always stood for the separate state demand”, advocates a GTF press release issued today.
The Force who claims of not remaining silent believes that the Gorkhaland demand has its own value. The GTF’s struggle will prolong until the demand is fulfilled, the GTF Chairman, Sukhman Moktan, has stated in the release.
It also informs that the Force with high alertness is keeping a check on the steps taken by the Centre at present.
Moktan in the release has said that the GTF does not believe that support for the century old demand cannot be gathered through meetings and rallies in the hills.
“For greater support works should be done collaboratively by including the Terai- Dooars and Siliguri areas under the Gorkhaland region”, asserts Moktan.
Alleging the Gorkha Janmukti Morcha (GJM) of making the aforesaid idea complex, the Chairman has complained that Morcha has spoiled the relationship between the communities here.
Further the release notifies that the GTF is engrossed with their plans and programmes focusing the country’s capital.
“If the GJM is serious about the demand, then they should first pass the Gorkhaland resolution in the GTA board, dissolve the GTA, the MLAs should resign and commence a mass rally at New Delhi and initiate the agitation”, the GTF has recommended.
Further, the GTF has also advised of forming a Sangarsh Samiti by taking the agitations of Uttarkhand and Telangana as examples.
The GTF has appealed all to resist their selfish political motives and instead come forward for Gorkhaland.
