BY BARUN ROY
DARJEELING: According to a Central Government communique to West Bengal State Government, the Central Government is ready to call a Tripartite meeting as early as 24th of August aimed at discussing the issue of the formation of separate state of Gorkhaland. A senior Home Ministry official has confirmed that the Central Government has asked the West Bengal Government to communicate this offer to Gorkha Janmukti Morcha in Darjeeling.
A Gorkha Janmukti Morcha delegation led by Darjeeling Member of Parliament Jaswant Singh had meet the Union Home Minister P. Chidambaram on June 15, seeking Tripartite talks between the Central Government, State Government and Gorkha Janmukti Morcha paving the way for the formation of separate state.
It remains unconfirmed at this moment, however, that the Tripartite talks initiated by the Central Government will indeed deal with the formation of a separate state of Gorkhaland or that it will seek to involve Gorkha Janmukti Morcha and the West Bengal Government in a direct one-to-one interaction meditated by the Central Government. Whatever, the case maybe, political analysts in Darjeeling Hills and beyond has welcomed this initiative, more so since it has been initiated by the Union Home Ministry itself.
No statements so far have been made by the West Bengal Government and the Gorkha Janmukti Morcha.

Gurungni! said
Fantastic news and it will be even better if it is indeed the creation of Gorkhaland that Central Government is proposing… history will remmember it as being first broken on Beacon online.

At such a time the Darjeeling people should be a little bit cautious otherwise the ignorant and ill-informed mass will be over excited and re-act without reading between the lines.
Gurungni! said
Boksy Aunty… the answer could be probably it’s West Bengal Government’s job…. Government communiques usually go through appropriate route…
barbarian said
the news sounds good if the process is brokered by the home minister himself.

barbarian said
pride before crash. the concrned state has been too arogant towards this important issue consequently they will lose face and dignity and good will of peace loving democratic people of ever great india.
barbarian said
or may be just to detract the forthcoming all shut down, better take extra caution otherwise it will be aborted once more as has been many a good deal before.
boksy aunty said
#8 no. during the time of GNLF agitation the home minister used to send the official communique directly to ghising, gurungniji.

the news may also be a creation of the gjm for face saving to call off the proposed strike as no one is happy with the decision to call the bandh. even the gjm leaders in their close circle conversations are found to be murmuring about the party’s or bimal’s decision. some of the leaders even said that this was the unilateral decision of gurung which is without consulting the other CCMs. if it is so, what is the necessity to make a jumbo central committee?
Lahure said
Wats the source of this communique ??
How can one validate its authencity ?
PLEASE DO NOT MAKE COMMENTS AFTER ASSUMING MORE THAN ONE OR TWO PSEUDO NAMES. MODERATOR

Gooooooood news, lets keep our fingers crossed.

What is the problem in creating Gorkhaland?
The delay will eventually prove the presence of racial inclination in the political system. Government should be as unbiased as possible.Gorkhas are as Indian as any other communities in India.
It would be a matter of our shame if the demands of gorkhas demand is supressed. We dont want to see our country to be second china.

I too got this news yesterday at around 4 PM and seems to be true. But I also came to know what was the internal strategy of the Central Govt. after 1st tripatriate talk with GJMM. “KEEP THEM HAPPY” policy to be followed by central crackdown Cell. Isn’t this new development in line with the above policy? – (Keep us Happy sans Gorkhaland)
mmm said
The Central govt. should make it crystal clear that GL state not possible and give a full stop to the agitation.
Lets see what comes out of the talks!

And let the Center make it crystal clear that Darjeeling can no longer be a part of West Bengal.
rishi said
and why would the centre do that? centre mein kya gurung ka bap ka raj hai?
Sanity said
#24.
Not only Gurung’s, even your baap is in the Center. These “baaps” decides your and every citizen’s fate every moment of our living. I hope you understood what I meant.
You also need to read #22 first.

Probably the Guys at Delli had sent an SMS to the Bongs at the Writers bldg inviting the GJMM for talks. As it evident that they (Delli) take the matter so casually and off handedly. Yet another talks which is probably the third prelude to the preceeding two. ‘Baat Accha Huwaa, Positive Aswashan Milaa’ would probably be the message all of us would get after glueing to the local channels.
Anyways, Jaswant Singh might have some strings to pull at the lower house of our parliament. The battle is on, the war cry is loud and clear and the meek public like us is hoping this development would mean the end of the Bandh, that is sooooo like us during the bygone days….
