GANGTOK, 22 July: The All Sikkim Tamang Buddhist Association has received a setback with its recently-elected Joint Secretary, tendering his resignation. Loday Tshering Tamang, who had been elected Joint Secretary [1] of the STBA in the elections held on 08 July, 2012, resigned from his post on 21 July, 2012.
This resignation within days of having been elected as an office bearer of the STBA raises doubts that the STBA could be grappling with some internal discontentment. The resignation has not been explained by the erstwhile Joint Secretary who has issued a press statement saying that he has resigned on personal grounds.
Today the new office bearers of the STBA were to be accorded their briefs by the old office bearers in an official handing over function; this could not take place in light of the new turn of events.
The resignation letter was handed to the present President , STBA and the Election Commission of STBA, Mr. Tamang informs in his press statement. It is expected that the STBA would have to conduct a bye election for the vacated post of Joint Secretary.
