GANGTOK, 09 Feb: Sikkim Krantikari Morcha has contended that the Chief Minister has accepted the state government’s failure in developing North Sikkim with his statement during the Gram Swaraj Mela on Saturday where he said that the revenue generated from hydel power projects would be used in developing the district.
In a press release, SKM has alleged that as compared to other districts, the North district has been left behind in all aspects. The North district has been treated like a “dumping ground” where victimized teachers are transferred and this has affected the quality of education in the area, the release alleges.
SKM has further stated that this is the reason behind the backwardness of the district in terms of education which in turn has hindered the progress of the region.
It is further alleged that the people of Sikkim have not still been able to properly receive the benefits of many central government programmes and schemes and the ruling party is playing politics on the basis of these programmes and schemes of the centre.
