In another development, Munish Tamang, president of Bharatiya Gorkha Parisangh — the largest apolitical pan-India organisation working for the welfare of the Gorkhas — joined the Congress in Delhi. In Darjeeling, the Gorkha Janmukti Morcha (GJM) sat in a meeting with proGorkhaland forces to decide on a consensus candidate.
“We waited for 15 years while the BJP did nothing. They have done nothing for the Gorkhas while we ensured their victory in three Lok Sabha elections. If nothing in 15 years, what will they do in the next 5 years? BJP is not the solution for the Gorkhas. The Congress has assured protection and political justice for people residing in the border regions, including North East, Sikkim and Ladakh,” stated Ajoy Edwards, president, HP from the AICC headquarters in Delhi.
Edwards stated that HP supports the INDIA bloc, not for the Gorkhas alone but for the country and especially the youth.
