		<description>The Gorkhas want a separate homeland not because of economic step-motherly attitude of the Bengali Politicians. They are much well off than all other districts except Kolkata(Check up datas). They think they will be much better off with out the Bengalis. So they began the ethnic cleansing of Bengalis from the hills at least 2 decades ago. Subhas Ghising successfully started and finished this job with the help of his henchmen like the kinds of Bimal Gurung! They even told other religious communities how they should go about worshipping according to their own sweet will! Now Bimal Gurung is preaching Gandhigiri? &quot;900 chuha khakey billi huj ko chali!&quot;. They should be first prosecuted for embezzlement of Hill Council funds and for instigating communal violence that led to thousands of deaths during the eighties!. All dissident voices in the Hills have been silenced! The way I see men and women in Darjeeling praising and worshipping Bimal Gurung as their leader in front of the eletronic media, confirms my doubts that these helpless people, who are not Gorkhas are desparete to show their allegiance to ensure their survival in the hills ! We have seen the same behaviour of the ordinary North Korean people towards their leader Kim Jong Il, even when they are devoid of any liberties in the world! They do so only to save their lives from tyranny and oppression of their Communist Govt. 

 The CPI(M) managed to purchase Ghishing, by giving him Darjeeling Hill Councill and looking the other way when he and his henchmen like Bimal Gurung, were blowing up the money for the development of the Hills! Today Ghising is removed because he was trying to have all that alone. They split up only because they were having a problem in shareing the booty! I see Bengali Buddhijibis giving long lecturers on TV channels about how hills are being deprived and how their problems are not being solved! My question is that - Who is responsible for that? Bengalis? Certainly not. Why the HIll council did nothing to solve problems like say the Water Shortage in Darjeeling? The Gorkhas are themselves to blame. Now Bimal Gurung is only useing this sentiment to spread hatred against Bengalis. Why was he with Ghising for so many years? 

What were the Gorkhas doing when the Bengalis were fighting for India&#039;s freedom? They were following orders from their British masters to shoot civilian Indians in Jallianwallah Bagh. They were killing Indian freedom fighters under Masterda Surya Sen in the hills of Jalalabad near Chittagong(All documented history). 

 And about the Gorkha regiment! There are probably more Bengalis in the Armed Forces than the Gorkhas. Thanks to the British and Lord Curzon for srapping the Bengal Regiment because of their vindictive attitude, and successive Indian Govts who always saw India through the eyes of the British . That did not deter the Bengalis from joining the Armed forces. If Gorkhas can parade Ex-service men, Bengalis will be able to arrange for a much larger contingent, even without a Bengal Regiment! 


WE INDIANS, Do not think your problem will be over by creation of Gorkhaland! The Kamtapuri Liberation Movement, Greater Coochbehar movement and so on are just waiting in the wings!
Similarly dear Gorkhaland friends! Your problems will also not be over if you can create Gorkhaland! There is surely a &quot;Lepchaland Movement&quot; to follow! Remember this land originally was inhabited, not by Gorkhas, but by Lepchas! Dont try to prove otherwise. Because that is the historical truth! Gorkhas arrived Darjeeling after Tea Gardens were started by the British.</description>

Aren&#039;t we second class citizens under Bengal rule? You would do well to join us and have a separate state Gorkhaland where everyone&#039;s future would be safe. Tell me Birseko Muda, what have you gained living under Bengal&#039;s rule? BTW, I do not think you are really a Birsa Munda, you must be a bong writing under an Adivasi&#039;s name. And yes, we would prefer you being called Tribals rather than Adivasi. Think about it.</description>

		<description>BIGGEST QUESTION
The biggest question that romps on the current political situation is that whither goes Darjeeling? Will the state and the Centre ever allow the separation of West Bengal and creation of a new state? If so, at whose cost and for what reason? If not, what will be Gurung’s strategy? Will he follow the path of Ghising for a blood shedding movement? And even if Darjeeling gains its separate statehood, how will it run without having a strong economic backup?
It is anybody’s guess that the Centre will not bow down to the demands of the GJM, considering the demand on ethnic issues. Once the claim is approved, 
•	ethnic issues in other states too will gain momentum and that will be horrible to tackle. This will be a very costly proposition because the base of the movement lies in separatism - the most vulnerable danger before the central government. 
•	Another issue, which is more important, is the demographic situation of Darjeeling. Being a northern border area, Darjeeling has always posed threat of foreign aggression. Leave aside the immigration issues, largely related with illegal intrusion. This threat will mount manifold if Sikkim joins the movement because Sikkim is close to China. China has already claimed a part of Sikkim and Arunachal Pradesh. 
•	The claim of Gorkhaland with the inclusion of the Terai and dooars region is a   a foolish proposition because this will give birth to serious political trouble and ethnic issues. Communal clashes are also not overruled. Is it believable that the Bengali and Adihibasi population of the Terai and Dooars region who are majorities will accept the rule of the Gorkhas to remain as second class citizens?
There is a danger that if the Gorkhaland demand is conceded, the next step would be to ask for merger with Nepal. We can not support a separate state for a million people based on ethnicity. However, more autonomy can be give to their local affairs by the state government. Delhi alone has a populaton of 150 million. Till how long will you keep carving new states whenever a million people get together and ask for one?</description>

		<description>The Akhil Bharatiya Adivasi Vikash Parishad has called a 24-hour strike in the Dooars and the Terai on Thursday, demanding Sixth Schedule status for the region and protesting against the Gorkha Janmukti Morcha’s move to include the areas into Gorkhaland.
“On July 17, we submitted a 13-point charter to the state and central governments and set a deadline of 90 days to fulfil the demands,” said Rajesh Lakra, the secretary of the Dooars-Terai Coordination Committee of the Parishad, today. “As the administration has not responded, despite a couple of reminders, we have decided to observe the strike.”
Healthcare, airline, army, media and other essential services have been kept outside the purview of the strike, Lakra said.
The Parishad charter of demands also included opening of closed tea estates, construction of East-West corridor through the Dooars and setting question papers of the Madhyamik exams in Hindi from 2009.</description>

		<description>Arrey Srivastavaji, Lagta aap Bengal niwaasi hain. Pahila number. Bharat main Gurkha nahin kahte. GORKHA kehte hain. Paschim Bengal main aapko kaun jyada pareshaan kar rahe hain? Gorkhey ya Mamata Bannerjee ya raatdin ka politicalbandh aur dharnabaazi? Croro rupaiya ka project chala gaya gujerat main. Darjeeling se chai, tourism, lakri, Bijli milta hain. 

Kaun bola Nepali log gande hain? Raaste bhar kaun paan gutka thukta hain? Jagah jagah pe kaun peshaab karta hain? Kalkatta shahar main kaun gandigandi gaaliya nikalta hain? Bara Bazaar main kaun garib Bihariyo ke saath bhaare ke jaanwar jaise salook karte hain? Pura bharat main sabse jyada bhikari kahan hai? Aap hi ke aas paas. Pura Bharat main sabse bara laal-batti kahan hain? Aapke Songachi main. 

Accha Sikhon ko bhi gaali nikala? Aapko apna Pradhan mantriji ka bhi koi izzat nahin hain? Gorkho ka khukri aur Sikhon ke kirpaan ko nahi uksaayey. Srivastava logon ka Sir-vavastha ho jayega

Bengaliyo ne aaplog jaise vyapari jaat ko sar par rakhkar khud bahar ho gaye hain. 

Aur aakhri number pe, agar aapko Britain jaane ka mauka mila, to aap sabese pahile apna paan choona ka dibba le ke champat ho jayenge heathrow ke liye. Parantu wahan paan khana or thukna mana hai</description>

		<description>Dunno about Britain, but the disdain that the present regime has for Gorkha soldiers in Nepal, they will soon raise their voices for a separate Gorkha category.</description>

		<description>Why you are not raising the similiar demand of Gorkhaland within the Nepal and Britain. Before demanding it from India your gorkhali bhai must raise it from those countries.</description>

		<description>&quot;The demand for the separate state of the people of the hills has to be seen in the context of the social, cultural, economic aspirations of the region which after more than half a century of independence of the country is still without proper infrastucture, medical facilities, institutions of higher education. The region lacks in even the basic facilities including drinking water. There are no job opportunities for the youth, no economic development in the region. All these factors point to a total neglect of the hill region&quot;

Have you seen rest of India? But good that you are raising these issues so that rest of India can also agitate for the same.</description>

		<description>The recent acts violence of the GJM aginst its former partners in the GNLF sets at rest all doubt about the real agenda of the GJM. The GJM basically wants power to be consolidated in its hands and does not believe in democracy. Leave aside any other opinion or view regarding the composition of the hill state, it does not even want any competition from its former party GNLF. 

These power hungry people masquerading as leaders of the hill people and their goondas are supposed to provide leadership to the proposed new seperate state. We should beware of such elements before they grow big.

The hill people certainly deserve better than such criminals and lumpens.</description>

		<description>SEPERATE HILL STATE : NEED OF THE HOUR

The demand for the seperate hill stste is totally justified.

The demand for the separate state of the people of the hills has to be seen in the context of the social, cultural, economic aspirations of the region which after more than half a century of independence of the country is still without proper infrastucture, medical facilities, institutions of higher education. The region lacks in even the basic facilities including drinking water. There are no job opportunities for the youth, no economic development in the region. All these factors point to a total neglect of the hill region. 

The demand for the separate state has therefore to be seen in the proper perspective. 

The entity of state is essentially a unit of administration. The primary task of administration is to address the issues of the people and take appropriate steps for solving the problems of the people. The demand for the separate state by the people of the hills is only a logical culmination of the, unaddressed legitimate aspirations of the people in a democracy. 

However, the seperate state should be called DARJEELING, which The seperate state should be called DARJEELING, which would convey a broader identity to the people of the hills and not Gorkhaland, which stands for just one section of the population. Calling the new state as DARJEELING would certainly address the feeling of gorkha domination prevailing among the indegenious tribes of the hills.</description>
