Gorkha Janmukti Morcha (GJM) today said it would take the Gorkhaland agitation for a separate state in Darjeeling hills to Delhi because the passage of the Telangana Bill had set an example that the state government’s permission is not required for the creation of a new state.GJM will now send a delegation to Delhi to talk to all national parties on their demand.
GJM supremo Bimal Gurung on Facebook official Page posted that the state government had no role in the creation of a new state.
“The recent Telangana development has now reversed the precedent of seeking the state government’s nod in rearranging a state’s boundary,” Gurung said in his post on the social networking website.
GJM will now send a delegation to Delhi to talk to all national parties on their demand, and would also organise a rally in the capital tomorrow, he added.

Gurung added that GJM would organise a massive rally at Sukna on March 2 to chalk out the strategy for pushing the Gorkhaland demand.
