Hill Trinamool spokesperson Binni Sharma
has termed the BJP election manifesto as a fake. Sharma, who was
present in Soureni to inaugurate a party office, compared the BJP
supplemented manifesto with duplicate Chinese goods that look alike the
originals. He added now the hills will not run under a “dictatorial and
oppressive one-party rule”. Sharma also appealed to the voters to vote
for their most preferred candidate on April 17, but also warned them to
remain alert of GJM leadership who are running a “contract-land” in the
pretext of Gorkhaland.
Sharma said hill folks have voted under
the command of a particular dominant party since years and this time
they are free to choose the candidate on their own. Persuading people to
vote against GJM backed BJP candidate, Sharma said on the earlier
occasion BJP leader Jaswant Singh made huge promises to the hill people
only to deceive them. GJM has again imported a BJP candidate, who
neither knows Nepali language nor knows anything about the hills. He
also thanked GNLF supremo Subash Ghising for backing Padmashree and
Arjuna Award winner TMC candidate Bhaichung Bhutia.
Launching attacks on GJM chief, Sharma
alleged, “In this LS elections Bimal Gurung is neither concerned with
Gorkhaland agenda nor with the benefit of public. His worry isn’t about
elections itself. The only concern he has is defending his own
existence.”
Following the party office inauguration, the TMC youth wing also conducted a rally covering the entire Mirik town.(EOIC)
