Darjeeling BJP MP Raju Bista

Bista says Gurung may have acted out of compulsion

Talking to reporters at the Bagdogra Airport here, Mr Bista said: "The political scenario in this region, especially in the Hills, has changed. Politically, Bimal Gurung now belongs to the TMC, but personally I have good relations with him and I respect all other members of the Gorkha Jan Mukti Morcha. As I too belong to the Gorkha community, there is a blood relation."

Of DM transfers in Darjeeling; Bista slams state govt

Mr Dhankar had come down heavily on the DM and the Superintendent of Police, Darjeeling, for not following protocol and not receiving him whenever he was around here. Social media is also abuzz with talk that a small district like Darjeeling, which is always in the news headlines, has seen five DMs in the past one-andahalf years, while netizens have claimed that the ruling party is changing the top official only because it failed to control the area politically.
