Let's Oppose GTA Polls - Myth Vs Reality.

Binam......

Mamta Banerjee led TMC government has decided to conduct elections to GTA despite a High Court order requesting the State to reconsider its decision.

Subsequently, an All Party meeting was called on 24/05/2022 by the Divisional Commissioner, who has been appointed the Election Authority for GTA polls. GJM-1, BJP, GNLF, CPRM, GRC decided not to contest the polls in that meeting.

BJP and it's junior alliance partner GNLF is still made to believe, despite repeated deceit, that BJP led Central Government will soon work out a permanent political solution as promised in their 2019 election manifesto.

Bimal Gurung led GJM is not totally averse to GTA polls, they want the State Government to first implement the 2012 MoA in letter and in spirit before the elections.

To sum it up all these parties, one way or the other are opposed to GTA. They are projecting GTA as a roadblock to Gorkhaland.

But is this the whole truth??let's examine.

Its a settled fact in politics that what we see is only what the Party and the media wants us to see.

GNLF:-

In the recently concluded Municipality elections GNLF drew a blank and lost all the seats. Disgracefully, most of their candidates lost their security deposit. The law says- if a candidate secures less than 1/3 of the total valid votes polled his/ her security deposit gets forfeited.

The average electorate in a municipal ward is about 600 voters, 1/3 of that is about 200 votes, imagine most of the GNLF candidates unable to secure even 200 votes.

After the departure of Ajoy Edwards from the scene, the party has gone down the slippery slope falling from bad to worse.

They don't have the Organisational Strength, Finance or Public Support - the fact that they drew a blank in the recent polls proves, except for a handful of party loyalist, GNLF vote bank has eroded considerably.

In a nutshell, the grand old party is "Weak" and in serious trouble, they are totally dependent on BJP for their political existence. In the light of this existing circumstance the party does not stand a chance if they contest GTA election now.

GJM-1 :-

Similarly, Bimal Gurung led GJM won only 3 seats out of 32 in the recent municipal elections.

Most of the voters in the rural areas, considered to be his piggy bank, have now shifted their allegiance to Hamro Party and BGPM considerably eroding his vote base. Areas where BG commanded absolute power has now slipped out of his hand completely.

His Terror syndicate, through which he ruled the hills with an iron hand is now completely destroyed, people no longer fear him or his crony’s.

BG is desperate. No public support , No power, fast depleting resources and most importantly his open alliance with TMC has put him in a hopeless situation. BG needs to do something to restore the confidence of the voters and he needs to do it fast .

He knows that there is a strong public sentiment against GTA which if tapped could be used to his advantage restoring his lost ground. This is exactly what he attempts to accomplish by boycotting GTA.

Moreover, with the emergence of Hamro party, many are now beginning to see a new political alternative or Hope in Ajoy Edwards.

The Plan:-

It is in this backdrop that the decision of these parties to boycott GTA polls must be examined.

From this position of weakness, GNLF, GJM,BJP and the like who are broken down and considerably weakened will never win, it is but natural they will boycott hoping to tap the strong ANTI- GTA wave to their advantage.

Similarly, other smaller parties, CPRM, CPIM, GRS and the like, who have decided to boycott the polls are mere electoral minorities, they don't have a firm grasp on reality and hence their probability of success in the polls is almost next to zero.

The decision to boycott GTA polls is therefore politically motivated. It is merely a Safety Valve to "Survive politically", the electoral boycott is no way related to the greater cause for a seperate state.

The strategy is to tap the strong Anti-GTA wave prevalent by projecting those contesting the polls as ANTI- GORKHALAND/ MATO BIRODHI, garnering maximum public sympathy and support in the process.

The question is - Will it work this time ?????

Political impasse and a new Begining

Binam Ranapaheli

Darjeeling is going to the Loksabha Polls on May 18 2019. The election fever has seriously hit the floors of Darjeeling Hills. All the major political parties have set their own blitzkrieg. This election is going to be very different than the other elections which Darjeeling has witnessed till to date. In the past elections, the contest used to be one sided and the results were predictable. The national party with whom the ruling party of the hills forge an alliance used to defeat the other party candidates with a huge margin. 105 days of illogical strike, economic slowdown, fragmentation of G.J.M.M(Gorkha Janmukti Morcha ) and identity crisis are the parameters that will decide the the elections output.

Gorkha Nationalism and The Power Paradox:

The anti-incumbency factor of G.N.L.F(Gorkha National Liberation Front) and the identity crisis sentiments dethroned the G.N.L.F supremo Subhash Ghising resulting the emergence of Bimal Gurung as the undisputed leader of the Gorkhas. People of the hills overwhelmingly supported his ideas and his apple polished rhetoric. The Gorkhaland movement spearheaded by him touched the pinnacle in a very short span of time. The pomposity of the movement cannot be simply measured in terms of engineered vocabulary(Gorkhaland vayena vane goli nidhar MA Thokchu) and artificial sentence instead is measured by the output. The formation of GTA(Gorkhaland Territorial Administration or can be said as the output of the statehood movement (led by Gurung) dwindled down the aspiration of the Common people. The GTA agreement signed at the cost of martyrs (sibchu Incident) and the post of Chief Executive of GTA projected him as a man of questionable character. No sooner or later he became the victim of Power Paradox. The opposition parties also had to follow his diktats. The right to freedom of expression(Art.19) was seriously violated even not allowing the media to criticise his idea(shutdown of HPC kalimpong). It is often said that Democracy does not thrives in a small place.,in the form of democracy autocracy will prevail. To criticise him was not only an offence but used to be treated as the horrendous act. Gorkha Nationalism ,the feelings and the sentiments that bind all the Indian Gorkhas was misinterpreted and falsely propagated just for his political gains. To criticise him was to be an anti-Gorkha(some still thinks) and a traitor. The concept of Gorkhaland has emerged from the feeling of oneness and the Gorkha nationalism, rather than by the head to head collision of power paradox and egocentric desires.

Directionless Movement :

The Movement that started due to the forceful imposition of the Bengali language again turned into a massive statehood Movement. Strikes were declared and The leader who was spearheading the movement(however the cause is not statehood but the auditing of GTA funds) absconded. The innocent people of the hill who protesting on the roads have had to face the wrath of the State Govt. The movement got a different shape due to the emancipation of the Gorkhas residing in every corner of the world. The reality is very hard to digest, the people who were providing an impetus to the people of Darjeeling hills from outside knew very less about the ground realities. Disorderness and tranquility destroyed the livelihood of the common people . Tea Garden workers whose economic status is very low suffered very badly. The Central Govt. refrained from the main scene and allowed it to become a rigmarole. Split of GJMM. In the absence of Gurung ,Binay Tamang ( Asst.General Secretary) took the leadership and spearheaded the movement. The sufferings of the people, deviation of the central Govt. Rate of increase of the martyrs mounted enormous pressure on the leadership of Tamang. The State Govt. on a plea submitted by the G.N.L.F party for the reinstoration of peace in the hills called an all party meeting (hills). The state Govt. is very rigid and adamant regarding the division of Bengal. Binay Tamang led the delegation as Gurung was still under the hibernation and was slapped with many non-bailable charges including Ant-national or waging war against the state. The outcome of the meeting with the state executive was prudent. On the advice of Gurung ,Binay Tamang called off the strike. People were against this decision. The wrath of the common people were visible in the social media, electronic media,etc. Bimal Gurung in accordance of the people’s deviation from his orientation bounced back of his statement and shifted the onus on Tamang. The State Govt. In order to bring normalcy in the hills resumed GTA with some changes. Binay Tamang was chosen as the administrator to carry on the developmental activities in the hills and bring back peace and prosperity .

Pseudo-chauvinism :

Binay Tamang led GJMM received the support of the people. All the major leaders who were close to Gurung also equivocally supported his candidature. The political sense of the common people in the hills has been hypnotised by the so called pseudo-chauvinists. People should understand and believe in the pragmatic sequence. It should not make any difference whom so ever will administrate G.T.A Gorkhaland resides in the heart of every Indian Gurkha’s,it doesn’t changes with the color of the flags. Inorder to grasp the power and fulfill self desires Gorkhaland should not be used. The addition equation of the GJMM(Bimal) and GNLF Who were the political rivals once has really exposed the underbelly of both leaders(Bimal G and Man G). Again same rhetoric is reverberating in the eardrums of the people. Now it is up-to the people to decide. The upcoming election is not a war between the gorkha and antigorkha forces, instead it’s a well planned strategy to fool the common people in the name of Gorkhaland and regain the power from Tamang’s led GJMM.

Jai Gorkha

life a butterfly… By Manoj Bogati….

Manoj Bogati is one of the most prominent poet in Contemporary Indian Nepali Literature. He has also been awarded with the Sahitya Akademi Puraskar (youth) for his contributions in Indian Literature(Nepali). Many of his poems are being translated into Hindi, English and can be found in the National archieve of Sahitya Akademi Delhi. The two severe movements that occurred in Darjeeling under the banner of two different political parties GJMM and GNLF,which almost ruined the career of the youths of two generations ,Manoj Bogati is one among those youths. The ripples of Identity crisis which the Indian Gorkhas have been facing since long are largely felt during the course of understanding the content of his poetry works. He is a journalists by profession and have published many news portal,khabarmagazine.com is one among them. His roots that was deeply rooted and trapped in the Rongo Cinchona plantation at point of time had almost shattered his writing skills,but the experiences he had garner from his home place has always acted like a salt that provides characteristic taste in his poetries.

As a journalist he is bit unstable because of his truthfulness and honesty that has always been the basic parameters of his life. This randomness, and dynamic nature of Manoj Bogati is also the reason that projected him as one of the most influential poet in Indian Nepali Literature. He has never written a single word under the influence of powerful people, he writes what his brain and heart suggests. From “Pasina ko chala” to “ kafarey America” his poetries and it’s order and pomposity largely describes his height of understand the global as well as the local issues. He never remains contaminated inside the four walls of Nepali Literature due which he has equally gained popularity among the like minded people’s and have also experienced a wrath from one section of people. He says…. Academic education system is a threat to the creative thinking, it has to be utilized only within its jargon, outside the jargon it has no use and importance….

His best friend among the poets is Raja puniani, I have never seen them apple polishing each other. Both of them loves open comment and independent views. The beauty of their friendship is their writings are not at all similar. Within the time frame of two years, I have found Manoj Bogati.. always in an action mode. Apart from writing poems, he is equivocal in almost all the disciplines of literature. He is a political analysts, critics and a well known lyricists. His song.. Budaba.. Yo ta Mero Samaya ho Buda ba..sung by Pushpan Pradhan is one among his finest composition that became viral in the social media recently.

Our wants never gets fulfilled. One after another the process it accumulates in the book of our desires. Some gets fulfilled but many remains unfulfilled. This unfulfilled desires replica is “Life a Buterfly” a new book(collection of eight stories) by Manoj Bogati. This is his first time as a story writer. His new experiment has already become a subject of discourse in Nepal. The feedback from the readers are exceptionally up-to the watermark. I haven’t read this book, but I am eager to go through it.

Manoj Bogati says… Life has provided and taught me enough lessons, The reflection of experiences I have gained in my life till date… Are the themes of my writing…
