According to the Bimal Gurung Official, a Facebook Page, It is written as " The GJM has always demanded for ST status for the 10 Gorkha Communities namely Rai, Yakkha, Gurung, Bhujel, Newar, Jogi, Sunwar Mukhia, Mangar, Khas and Thami.I am happy that the State Cabinet has recommended the above communities for the approval of ST Status.I would now appeal to the Central Government to expedite this issue and grant them the ST Status as soon as possible.
Centre must take steps to grant Schedule Tribe status to all Gorkha communities, except those belonging to the Schedule Caste."
