Hill parties condemned the actions of police on the GJM supporters at Panighata near Mirik under Kurseong subdivision…… well what hypocritical parties are these….. they condemn only the police action on GJM supporters but not on GNLF supporters… they don’t even condemn the bandh announced by the GJMM chief, Mr Bimal Gurung where other than the district magistrate, the superintendent of police and the SDOs, no other vehicles, including police vehicles, would be allowed into Darjeeling Hills during the bandh and the utter nuisance that GJM & GNLF caused.
Bimal Gurung is surely proved that he is second Ghisingh… , he speaks like the entire Darjeeling Hills is his ancestral property and he is the king and whatever he says has to be followed!!!
Whose gonna suffer by the bandhs? Thats what called axing your own feet!
