Chamling urges Namthang Rateypani to complete Golay’s rejection

NAMCHI, 09 Apr: Sikkim Democratic Front president Pawan Chamling today toured through various GPUs of Namthang-Rateypani constituency in South Sikkim lobbying for support for the SDF candidate Tilu Gurung. Ms. Gurung was elected from the same constituency in 2009 and is pitted this time against the SKM president, PS Tamang [Golay]. Namthang-Rateypani is among the larger constituencies of the State with 13,173 voters [M: 6,639 and F: 6,539].
Stressing that he was confident that the people will reject the “divisive politics of spite” of the SKM in the coming elections, Mr. Chamling called on the people of Namthang-Rateypani to complete Mr. Tamang’s rejection by defeating him from this constituency as well.
Namthang-Rateypani was a surprise pick for Mr. Tamang because his party had originally announced his candidature for Soreong-Chakung in West Sikkim and Upper Burtuk in East. The former was dropped and replaced with Namthang-Rateypani.
During his daylong marathon tour of the constituency, Mr. Chamling visited various places and interacted with the people as he made brief stopovers along the route.
He listened to the grievances and the demands of the people of the constituency and assured to address them in his next tenure in office.
Starting from Upper Perbing, Mr. Chamling concluded his tour of the constituency at Mamring. He was also accompanied by the party candidate for the constituency Ms. Gurung.
While addressing the people, Mr Chamling stated that the party is in need of the people’s support this time because the development chart etched out by the SDF for Sikkim is being imperiled by detractors. Stating that the leader of the “goonda” party is contesting from Namthang Rateypani constituency this time he urged the people not to cast a single vote for SKM and serve a fitting reply to the party which is using violence as a campaign tool.
“If Golay wins from here then the souls of the Late NK Gurung and Late Kunga Sherpa of Soreng will cry over the denial of justice,” he said. He further quipped that a “convicted” leader in Nar Bahadur Bhandari was supporting a “chargesheeted” PS Tamang and if voted to power their combination will not bode well for Sikkim, he alleged.
He asked SDF supporters to maintain peace in the area and said that anti-social elements are roaming around in the constituency disturbing the peace and tranquility. He further asked the people to stay calm and vote for SDF for peace, development and security in the state.

Mr Chamling assured to develop the constituency into a major tourist hub and assured to fulfill all the pending demands of the area in his next government.
