GANGTOK, 01 August: A delegation of monks representing the Degoen Jinkyong Tsogchen [All Sikkim Monasteries Association] accompanied by the SIBLAC convenor, Tseten Tashi Bhutia, NASBO president, Sonam Kaleon, and president, Denjong Chyarig Tsogpo, SD Denjongpa, called on the Governor today with regard to the proposed Ting Ting Hydel project on the Rathong Chu.
The delegation submitted a memorandum to the Governor urging him to invoke the special discretionary powers under Article 371 F (g) and “immediately scrap all power projects or any such other activities that pollute the sanctity of Rathongchu or tampers with our religious sentiments”.
“We would not hesitate to approach any forum, both national and international to achieve our objective for the benefit of all sentient beings if justice is denied by and from constitutional frameworks,” the letter states.
