NASBO welcomes Committee recommendation to scrap HEPs on Rathong Chu


GANGTOK, 19 Jan: The National Sikkimese Bhutia Organisation [NASBO] has welcomed the reported recommendation of the High Powered State-level Committee to scrap all three hydel projects proposed over the Rathong Chu in West Sikkim.
A press release issued by NASBO president, Sonam Kaleon, heralds the recommendation as a “wise decision” and stressed that such a recommendation of the State Government is a “welcome decision which reflects its keenness in preserving the socio-religious interests of the Sikkimese people”.
The release further requests the State Government to take “strict note of the anti-social and anti human activities” of concerned power developers in the affected area in view of the Committee’s recommendation.
