| Bimal Gurung appeals Dr Mahendra P. Lama to support BJP |
However, this is the same GJM party who in the recent past had suspended Mr P Arjun, then prominent member of the party’s intellectual wing, when he came out and supported Dr Mahendra P. Lama.This is for the first time in the history of Darjeeling that Lok Sabha votes will be divided hugely.The move of GJM to appeal Dr M P. Lama to support BJP could be the result of this division of votes in the Darjeeling hill.
Bimal Gurung came up withe the following Facebook update :-
“This year’s Lok Sabha election is now clearly divided between those who are supporting Gorkhaland and those who are against the demand.
This election is not about local issues but about our long standing demand of Gorkhaland. The BJP is expected to come to power and they have already decided to support our cause. This is a golden opportunity as a government which is set to come in power is supporting our long cherished demand.
I, want to appeal to all the Gorkhaland loving people to unite to the sake of Gorkhaland.
I would like to specially appeal to Dr Mahendra P. Lama to come out in support of BJP for the sake of the greater cause. Let us set aside all difference and not let go this golden opportunity. I am ready to talk to Dr Lama for the sake of Gorkhaland.”
