GANGTOK, 15 Oct: Sikkim Himali Rajya Parishad party has condemned the Namthang incident as unfortunate and blamed that the ruling Sikkim Democratic Front on having incited the incident with its threats to the common people and independent panchayat candidates.
“The clash between two groups from within the SDF has create havoc among the common people before Dasain and has not only created a law and order situation but also spread fear among the people. Sikkim being a border and peaceful state, such clashes may create law and order situation,” SHRPP’s Tara Shrestha states in a press release.
Mr. Shrestha further contends that the incident was obviously pre-planned with the agenda to threaten the people and voters who are supporting independent candidates against the ruling party candidates in the Panchayat polls.
SHRPP has demanded an independent investigation into the clash airing fears that otherwise, the common people may become scapegoats of a one-sided administrative action.
