Gorkha janmukti Morcha(GJM) Chief Mr. Bimal Gurung decided to reopen hill School and the Educational Institution from the 13th of September.
In his Facebook Official page he writes - Today The GJM had invited all heads of schools and colleges to this meeting to hear their opinion on opening of schools and colleges in the hills.
After the meeting we have come to the conclusion that the on-going agitation for Gorkhaland will continue as it is our final battle for our long-standing demand for a separate State. This is the only answer to the people’s aspirations.
But considering the priority we accord to education the GJM, in consultation with various teachers’ representatives, has decided to allow for the re-opening of all schools in the Darjeeling hills from September 13. No transport will be available to them and they will need to walk to school. The school authorities will have to ensure boarding facilities for all outstation students and also for students who can't walk it to school. There will be NO relaxation for commercial establishments too.
Students are our future, tomorrow’s voice for Gorkhaland. Keeping this in mind their success in the coming Higher Secondary and other final examinations need to be ensured by teachers.
All students and teachers must also do a signature campaign for Gorkhaland and send a copy to the President of India and Prime Minister. The School authorities must hold classes on Saturdays and Sundays to make up for lost time.
I reiterate that our fight is not against the State; it is with the Centre.
I am happy that all heads of schools and colleges in the hills have openly come and supported the century old demand of Gorkhaland and promise to do so in future.
On this special day I pay tribute to Dr. Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan on his 125th birth anniversary and wish all the teachers of Hills, Terai and Dooars a "Happy Teachers' Day".
