पहाड़को प्रथमिक पाठशालाहरु एका एक बन्द हुनुमा सरकार पक्ष दोषी छ कि शिक्षक-शिक्षिकाहरुको लापारवाही? किन दार्जीलिङ पहाड़को शैक्षिक स्तर दिनोदिन खस्किन्दै गइरहेको छ? प्रथमिक शिक्षा बाल-बालिकाहरुको निम्ति महत्तवपूर्ण हुँदा-हुँदै पनि किन आजसम्म पहाड़को शिक्षा व्यवस्थामा सुधार आउन सकिरहेको छैन?

GTA demands on president table

A team of the GTA, led by Bimal Gurung, met the President and submitted a three-point memorandum, which demanded the setting up of a central university, transfer of reserved forest areas to the GTA and a tripartite meeting with the Centre and state government. Gurung, the Gorkha Janmukti Morcha chief, was accompanied by party general secretary Roshan Giri, the Morcha Kalimpong MLA Harka Bahadur Chettri and GTA councillor RB Bhujel. The GTA delegates reached Gangtok at 2pm and met the President at Raj Bhavan around 4pm. The meeting lasted for almost half an hour. “The President has asked the GTA to scout for a suitable land in Darjeeling for the establishment of the central university. He said he will consider the demand,” Giri said after the meeting. Giri said the central university was a long-standing demand of the Morcha. “During the tenure of Arjun Singh, the Union human resource development minister, an announcement was made on setting up the central university in the hills but for some reason, it failed to see the light of the day,” the GTA memorandum read. Gurung said one of the important demands in the memorandum is the transfer of the reserved forests to the GTA. “We have been demanding that the central government transfer the reserved forest to the GTA.” Giri said the meeting with the President was positive. “The interaction with the President was positive. He said the process to set up a central university in the hills would be initiated immediately. The President was inquiring about the land status and we told him that the GTA has land in Sonada where the university can be set up.”

Attack on GNLF duo

Darjeeling, April 16: A group of alleged Gorkha Janmukti Morcha supporters today vandalised the house of one GNLF leader and assaulted his party colleague at a time the ousted outfit is trying to make a comeback in the hills. Bhanu Lama, a former DGHC councillor, and Deepak Gurung, the former GNLF Darjeeling branch committee president, have been politically inactive for the last four years. Gurung was assaulted outside his house, which he was forced to abandon in 2008. The death of a Morcha supporter, Pramila Sharma, from a bullet allegedly fired from Gurung’s house on July 25, 2008, had set off a wave of attacks on GNLF supporters in Darjeeling. The houses of several of GNLF leaders, including Gurung and Lama, had been burned down and the two were forced to flee the hills, along with party chief Subash Ghisingh. Gurung, who had been staying in Siliguri ever since, had just returned to Darjeeling when he was assaulted. While Lama has not been assaulted, he alleged that Morcha activists vandalised his home. Both GNLF leaders’ homes are in Darjeeling town. Lama has filed an FIR with the Darjeeling Sadar police station but Gurung tried to downplay the incident and said he had no plan to lodge a police complaint. In his FIR, Lama said a group of 25-30 men and women, led by Gorkha Janmukti Yuva Morcha leader Tilak Chhetri, raided his apartment, smashing windowpanes, breaking furniture and a washbasin. Lama has named in the FIR Chhetri, who is also the commissioner of conservancy department in Darjeeling municipality, Morcha activists Deepak Thapa and Pema Pradhan. Lama had left his house near Dr Zakhir Hussian Road an hour before the attack that took place around 12.45pm. Other than a few workers who were renovating the flat, nobody else was present when the vandals struck. The mob also beat up two of the workers. Police sources said the same group had assaulted Gurung before proceeding to Lama’s house, which is 500m away. Gurung was roughed up when he was about to enter his house. The boundary wall of his house is shared by the compound of the quarters of Damayanti Sen, the deputy inspector-general, Darjeeling range. Asked about the assault, Gurung said: “Small boys had come over and it was a minor incident. I had merely come to collect my daughter’s cupboard and some other things. I do not plan to file and FIR.” The police sources said Gurung, who came from Siliguri to Darjeeling today, left without taking his daughter’s belongings. Lama had been staying in his Darjeeling home for the past few months. The attacks have happened at a time when the GNLF was attempting a comeback in the hills. GNLK leaders had claimed that Morcha members had joined their party in recent weeks. Lama today said: “I have been politically inactive for the past four years. I fail to understand why they vandalised my house. Is this the democracy that they (Morcha) talk about?” He added: “I have a house in Darjeeling and it seems I do not have the right to stay at my own house. I had come to repair the house. They beat up the workers and vandalised the entire room.” Sudeep Sarkar, the additional superintendent of police, Darjeeling, said a police picket would be posted at Lama’s house immediately. “We have also got some names (of the attackers) and after the verification, we will immediately swing into action.” Chhetri, who is the president of the Darjeeling town committee of the Yuva Morcha, denied the charge against him. “I know nothing about the incident and I am not involved. My name is being unnecessarily dragged into it.” Asked about the attacks, Morcha general secretary Roshan Giri said: “I don’t know anything about the incidents.”

Hill estate to reopen after worker arrests

Darjeeling, April 14: The management of Ging Tea Estate has decided to reopen the garden tomorrow after seven workers accused of assaulting the garden’s assistant manager surrendered in a Darjeeling court. Sandeep Mukherjee, the principal advisor of the Darjeeling Tea Association, said: “The management of Ging Tea Estate has decided to reopen the garden tomorrow after it was learnt that all seven workers involved in attacking the assistant manager surrendered in a court here.” Two workers, one of them garden supervisor Harsha Gurung, surrendered in the court of the chief judicial magistrate on Friday. The other five surrendered today. All the accused have been remanded in judicial custody for 14 days. The decision to reopen the garden, locked since April 10, was taken after the management and the Gorkha Janmukti Morcha affiliated Darjeeling Terai Dooars Plantation Labour Union, held a meeting in Darjeeling today. The management had, however, specifically blamed the seven workers for the attack and not the union. “During the meeting the union leaders gave an undertaking to the management that such indiscipline would not occur in future and all differences would be solved amicably through a negotiation process as laid down in the industry’s norm,” said Mukherjee. On April 9, a group of workers, led by Harsha had attacked the garden’s assistant manager, Dipesh Kumar Gupta, 28, while he was on his way for lunch. “We are still unclear about the reason. It could be a personal grudge,” said Mukherjee. The management had alleged that the assistant manager was hit with iron roads and empty bottles and other executives who had gone to intervene were pelted with stones. “The assistant manager is still in the ICU. He has suffered cranial injury and his shoulder has been dislocated. There was also heavy loss of blood,” said Mukherjee. Suraj Subba, general secretary of the Morcha’s tea garden union, said: “We are happy that the management has decided to reopen the garden. We will also go to the workers to inform them about the need to abstain from violent activities. “We, were always of the opinion that the majority of the workers should not suffer because of the handiwork of a handful of workers,” he added. The garden owned by B.D. Tea Estates Pvt. Ltd, has a plantation area of 254 hectares and employs 776 workers.

Call all-party meet: Asok

Siliguri, April 14: Former Bengal minister and CPM leader Asok Bhattacharya today demanded that the administration call an all-party meeting to “restore peace and democracy” in Siliguri in the wake of the clashes between the supporters of the Left Front and the Trinamul Congress in the town on April 10. “Keeping in view the recent unrest in Siliguri following the attack on the CPM office on Hill Cart Road and arrest of several members of our party, the administration should call an all-party meeting to restore peace and democracy here. We are of the opinion that the recent incidents are against the political culture of the town,” said Bhattacharya, who is also the convenor of the Darjeeling district Left Front. More than 50 Left Front leaders and supporters, including Bhattacharya, had been held here on April 10 following repeated clashes between cadres of the Left and Trinamul. The clash broke when the Trinamul had taken out a rally in Siliguri town to protest the attack on finance minister Amit Mitra by alleged Left activists in Delhi. The former urban development minister said the CPM and different wings would not hold any public events in Siliguri for few a days in order to avoid any confrontation with political rivals. “Our supporters have been told to refrain from holding any public meetings or taking out rallies in Siliguri and the surrounding areas for sometime to avoid clashes with other parties. The leader of the Opposition in the Bengal Assembly, Surjya Kanta Mishra, is expected to visit Siliguri on April 19. He will hold an indoor meeting with party supporters,” said Bhattacharya. A Left team today submitted a memorandum to Siliguri deputy police commissioner O.G. Paul and demanded her intervention to stop police atrocities on Left workers.
