Addressing his party activists from Kurseong at his home village of Patleybas in Darjeeling some days ago, Mr Gurung had compared Kurseong town to a 'toilet.' Also, a short video clip of his statements went viral on social media.
Displeased with top district officials
Delegation says another round of talks soon; state govt officials skip meeting
A seven-member delegation of the party today met Union Minister of state for Home affairs G Kishan Reddy in Delhi in a meeting called by the Centre to discuss "issues related to the Gorkhaland Territorial Administration" (GTA).
Darjeeling District Trinamul Congress president Ranjan Sarkar also said it was a ploy of the BJP to bring the 'Gorkhaland' issue to the forefront when the Mamata Banerjeel ed state government had been carrying out development work in the Hills and when peace had prevailed there.
Addressing the press in his office here, he said that the decision of the central government to call a tripartite meeting and issue letters to officials directly without informing the state government is totally against the system of parliamentary democracy, the country's federal structure and as such, objectionable.
