NAMCHI, 02 June: SDF party supporters from Namthang-Rateypani constituency have condemned recent media reports suggesting that SDF workers of the constituency had “welcomed and supported” dissident MLA PS Tamang’s visit to the constituency on 30 May.
Addressing a press conference here today, a group of SDF workers from the area clarified that Mr. Tamang, accompanied by former MLA Bhoj Raj Rai and other supporters, had visited the area to offer condolences to a family on the death of one of its members.
The party workers also retaliated to a comment attributed to Mr. Tamang as referring to the area MLA, Buildings & Housing Minister Tilu Gurung, as an ‘outsider’. The SDF party workers held her up as a ‘daughter of Sikkim’ and contended that compared to other constituencies [like Mr. Tamang’s Burtuk] Ms. Gurung has in fact worked among the people and brought about “massive development” to the constituency.
Responding to Mr. Tamang’s call for ‘change’, as some news-reports had conveyed, the SDF workers contended that the present government under Chief Minister, Pawan Chamling has brought about the ‘real change’ and established ‘full-fledged democracy’ in the state.
SDF supporters went on to thank the Chief Minister for his ongoing visit of constituencies accepting and sanctioning various demands made by the people.
The press conference was addressed by SDF CEC members Gokul Rai, Silash Lepcha, KB Subba, CLC president DB Chettri, CLC general secretary Nim Bdr. Chettri, Sarita Thapa, Chelli Morcha convener, Nabin Gurung youth convener, Prakash Rai, vice convener, panchayat secretary [Namthang] Mohan Singh Tamang along with supporters Brijan Tamang, Dhan Bdr. Tamang, Ramjit Tamang, Chandra Bdr. Tamang, Buddha Singh Tamang, Palden Lepcha, Arjun Rai, Norden Lepcha and Ganga Ram Chettri.
