Beauties come forward for a clean and beautiful Sikkim


GANGTOK, 23 Feb: “If Miss Sikkim can come forward to keep the town clean then why not the common people?”, said organiser of the pageant, Raj Pradhan addressing the media today at MG Marg where the Miss Sikkim finalists participated in a cleanliness drive.
Illustrating this message the beauties along with the organising members helped clean the MG Marg today. Mr Pradhan further informed that the winner of Miss Sikkim Contest will be the brand ambassador of Travel Agents Association of Sikkim [organisers of the Sikkim Snow and Culture fest which is hosting the pageant] and will get the opportunity as well as the platform to participate in Femina Miss India East contest.
In order to encourage the young contestants all 29 girls will be given the opportunity to perform in the traditional round on the final day whereas earlier only 25 contestants were selected for the final round, he informed. Although participation has not been as high as hoped we will continue to organize the contest in the capital, Mr Pradhan added.
On behalf of the contestants, the organizers have asked for support and encouragement from the public. The crown for the winner has been sponsored by Nakshatra jewellery[MG Marg] while equipments for the cleanliness drive today were provided by Big Bazaar for which the organisers thanked Big Bazaar.
Well known singers [Nepal] Mingma Sherpa and Sushma Rai will be present at the finals at May Fair resort tomorrow while Thuckchuk Lachungpa will be present as the guest of honour, it was informed.

      When theatrics enters the real life, there is always some reason for laughter...the ladies here are receiving the right grooming. If anyone of them succeeds, we shall see them engaging in bigger dramas in future.

    Oh, I so agree with what all of u are saying....its just a carbon copy of what happens in the mainland!! Hope the organisers had thot of something more innovative than sticking to the age old stereotype of woman as the guardian of cleanliness!!! If they were to have a Mr. Sikkim, will they have the hunks holding jharus and strutting around and posing with it!!! what an archaic idea it is??? girls can run marathons, climb mountains or even race the fields ...so why this???? wake up Sikkim, lets do something out of the world and have the world notice this tiny speck!!!!
