Posters signed by the ‘Janta’ vilifying the Gorkha Janmukti Morcha leadership have again surfaced in the town’s main road and super market areas taking readers by surprise.
They have raised questions on the present activities of GJM chief Bimal Gurung and condemned his dictatorial attitude. The writings also warn people against following Gurung blindly as doing so would show they lack self respect and fear him.
The GJM chief’s call to employees to sacrifice their salary for three months has been ridiculed with the ‘Janta’ wondering how people would lead normal lives if Gurung’s diktats were to be followed.
The purpose of forming the Gorkhaland Joint Action Committee has also been questioned, dubbing it as worthless and a puppet in the GJM chief’s hands, while the people have been urged to remain highly alert.
The administration seems to be clueless about the source of the ‘Janta’ posters that crop up time and again across the hills. It may be noted that similar posters targeting the GJM leadership had surfaced in Kalimpong right after chief minister Mamata Banerjee’s visit here last month.
Again, North Bengal Development minister Gautam Deb was in town on Friday and another of those ‘Janta’ posters have surfaced. Interestingly, the handwriting in the latest posters is identical to the earlier ones, say observers.
