Gorkha Jan Mukti Morcha (GJMM) leaders have been asked to attend Prime Minister Narendra Modi's swearing-in ceremony.
BJP MLA from Matigara Naxalbari Anandamay Barman said, “There is enough time to withdraw nomination papers. Party will talk to him and then make an appropriate decision.”
"Hill people have changed their mindset, as the BJP has fooled them, showcasing the Gorkhaland issue as a lollipop in the last three terms. Had the BJP wanted to give them Gorkhaland out of its political will, it could have done it like Jammu and Kashmir where Article 370 has been abrogated. As a result, people have decided to bring in proper development in the Hills by joining hands with the AITC."
We request people all over to support this cause and join us in the protest. We will also be holding signature campaigns, along with an online one, against it. We want the Centre to stop this process of privatisation,"
"Being a primary member of the Morcha for the last 13 years, it is now time for me to move on. I am tendering my resignation from the primary membership of the Morcha."
Gurung, however, said the two leaders would not be seen in one platform in the coming days, but added that "in politics, anything can happen."
Tamang said that he would not divulge anything about the meeting now, and added that he met Gurung as he was the "guardian here." He also said that there had been a misunderstanding earlier due to political differences, but such misunderstanding was no longer there.
