    What is the future of GLP as GL never gonna form?

  2. MMM said

    What is GLP actually, is it political army as its commanders are GJM heads like we have the Naxalites.

    What is the future of GLP as GL never gonna form? What is the career future of this youths?

    Are they meant to enforce law by protecting common people against the bandh enforcers or they would protect the bandh enforcers from any form of protest?

    What would if WB Police force and para military forces batons the GLP and put them behind bars for unlawful activities?

  3. I Love My India said

    Who is paying these illegal force? What is the source of money for GJMM? Their may be some anti indian financial support to all these to make these region distrub.

    Yes, recently the Chinese ambassador in India went to Darjeeling to distribute salaries to the GLP. They even got a hike (not sure which pay commission is in term in China now!) of 30%. Seeing this the Bengalis also want to be listed in GLP but it has been announced that they will be allowed to only after Gorkhaland is formed.

    Sucks…. Bimal Gurung has his own private army now and what sucks more is the fact that this freaking strike is not about Gorkhaland at all… this strike is about big freaking egos of so called GJM leaders and the fight between two contractors… and if anyone feels this strike is for Gorkhaland.. U guys suck too..

    Darjeeling is moving down the drain and no one cares

  7. pema lama said

    Laaaaaaaa………..you are absolutely right and i feel pity for the people. I also feel that the strike called by GJMM is not for Gorkhaland but for the money recently provided by the govt. please correct me if i’m wrong.

    @8 Look I want to make it very clear to all. What is happening in darjeeling in the name of Gorkhaland matters to all Gorkhas from India to Nepal to the world. So stop snapping and get out of this we are what we are attitude.

  13. Pradip said

    Any child of BG in this GLP from his five wives!!

  14. Rajneesh said

    5 wives ? is this the trend in Darj?

  15. Sanity said

    The Bengal government is using its “macher jhol buddhi” to divide the Gorkhas. They have started floating open tenders all over Darjeeling and have asked the GNLF people to apply. The GNLF, which has no right to anything in Darjeeling till they make their stand on Gorkhaland clear and stop hobnobbing with the Bengal government, are rushing in like fools. Result: Gorkhas fight, Bengalis win, Gorkhaland lost. When will we “lata” Gorkhas learn these tricks from the cunning Bengalis?

  16. Sanity said

    The West Bengal government plans to topple the Gorkhaland demand with a deft stroke of “open tenders”. Paharey lata haru, kahiley timiley bujhney yini haru ho chaal!

  17. Sanity said

    And we the batho-hui-topolney-haru just keep on discussing the merits and demerits of strikes in forums like these when the ground is being swept off our feet by the West Bengal government without even us realising it.

  18. Rajneesh said

    GNLF, bloody waste of space and a bengal govt puppet should be kicked out forever.

  19. I Love My India said

    @3 & @15, Your words proof GLP is a Chiness sponsored terrorist outfit in India. Govt must shot immediately all the GLP. Bloody Sanity open tenders for all not only for GJMM. GJMMs are simply anti Indian for not paying taxes, communal activites, attacking adivasis, set up terrorist outfit etc. GJMM is very soon wipe out from the earth but Darjeeling Hills will be nowhere after that.

  20. Rajneesh said

    It is easy to point a finger at GJM as Chinese sponsored…but where is the proof? On the other hand it is proven by Intelligence Bureau that Tibetans have been receiving money from China and IB is already probing the case in land /property purchase by Tibetans.

    Kindly put your tongue and fingers in leash lest you become dumb and “durey” for life!

  22. I Love My India said

    Kindly start to pay taxes, telephone bills, electricity bills etc. Non payers are called Goondas and anti Indain. There is no free lunch.

  23. JTM said

    Have you paid patent fees to Subhash Ghai for the usage of this song from his film. Apparently he is planning to file a suit against you.

  24. I Love My India said

    First teach your Bimal/Roshan to pay GOVT TAXES etc. Other wise govt will force to stop all kind of dole to them.

  25. Rajneesh said

    Our beloved politicians have amassed billions of black money in Swiss Bank accounts….so who is the sucking parasites here? We are fighing for peanuts and jaggery.

  26. I Love My India said

    Your local ( Darjeeling Hils) politicians are doing so.

  27. JTM said

    What local local all the time? You remind me of a local train going up an down the same track with chooran walas doing their banging on the glass bottles with spoons and squeaky voices. The same thing day after day night after night. Looking for commuters to listen to that same old awful sounds. nothing beyond and nothing before. Come on grow yr wings and see the big world outside.

  28. I Love My India said

    Before that ask GJMM to pay taxes, bills , stop using illegal car number, stop communal ativites and obey the laws.

  29. I Love My India said

    YOU WILL BE BANNED IF YOU CONTINUE USING ABUSIVE LANGUAGE WHILE COMMENTING! PLEASE TAKE THIS AS A WARNING! YOU WILL NOT BE WARNED AGAIN. MODERATOR!

    i have come to know a section of intellectual people in kalimpong r going to hold a meeting on 14 July to discuss the ill impact of the strike. the meeting is also likely to be attended by the heads of the educational institutions, hotel associations, travellers etc. i think this initiative would definitely send a message to the gjm leadership circle to re-think their decision to call long hartal. this step of the neutral citizens should be welcomed and encouraged by one and all.

  33. MrMe said

    Have anyone of you belligerent seemingly intelligent jerks ever thought where Asha Gurung disappeared?? Yes, Asha Gurung…Bimal Daju’s wife. She used to be pretty forward in this so called movement for Gorkhaland.

    Well, let me enlighten you all with her whereabout. The grapevine has it that she is presently in Bangalore with her kids over seeing the construction work of her soon to be established multi storeyed building.

    While you fools cry for Gorkhaland, the suckers make money.

  34. I Love My India said

    Fantastic, Govt must immediatly deploy CRPF and stop all kind of Anti Indian activites running in Darjeeling Hills.

  35. Sanity said

    #33.
    People really do have the time to find out all these info. How about finding a way to demand Gorkhaland more effectively than trying to find out who is doing what and who isn’t?

    I don’t think that Asha Gurung is an architect or an engineer to oversee the construction of her “alleged” building in Bangalore. Even if she is doing that what is the wrong? Asha, like all Indians, has the right to build a houses in any part of India. Even Sonia Gandhi has a house in Shimla – does that mean she has forgotten India?

  36. I Love My India said

    Like all indian GJMM (Asha/Bimal) must pay taxes and stop all others anti indian activites, otherwise they will considers Anti indian.

  37. MrMe said

    35…don’t take the “over seeing” part literally. Please try to read between the lines. Its o.k. to support Gorkhaland. Even I do. But, do you really think it is the right time to build houses elsewhere while we are left to rot in here?? Talk about leadership, boy!

  38. MrMe said

    Nothing is wrong in Asha building houses in Bangalore or elsewhere. But, the timing is such that we are compelled to think that like the erstwhile “ruler” this guys must be resettling in Bangalore incase anything went wrong!!

  39. Sanity said

    #37.
    As I said, Asha is not constructing a house in Bangalore. She is looking for a house for rent. Now, is that also a not-to-be-done thing for GJM leaders?

  40. MrMe said

    You say that Asha Gurung is looking for a rented house for her kids to stay in Bangalore. Please come off your innocence! A little bird told me that Asha is constructing a building ( a multi storeyed, perhaps) in Bangalore not only for his children but also to let it out to potential gorkha students and patients who go to the South to study and to get better medical treatment. Now, think about the ways in which she must have made that much money to do what she is doing!!

  41. MrMe said

    BTW, there are so many not-to-be-done things by the GJM leaders which are actually done by them…repeatedly infact!

  42. Sanity said

    #40.
    Well we will see the proof if she has really constructed a building. If she is planning a business venture, then I see no harm. It will benefit the students and people from Darjeeling who go to Bangalore. Unless we have proof we cannot label her as being corrupt. She could have a business partnership going on or she could also have taken a loan for the house.

  43. MrMe said

    Oh, Sanity! You are not what your name seem to convey. Stop living in a fairy tale world!

    Its because of such gullibility as yours that the people of Darjeeling have time and again been taken for a ride.

  44. MrMe said

    …good pillion riders, I say!
