Now that the BB Gurung Memorial High School, Sukna, has been renamed as Sukna High School by the GTA, the matter has apparently hurt the Gurung community. The newly formed Gurung (Tamu) Youth Association has decided to meet GTA chief executive Bimal Gurung to restore of the name. Gurung had laid the foundation stone at BB Gurung Memorial High School on January 24 to revamp the school into a model school.
It may be mentioned here that GNLF leader BB Gurung was the party vice president during the 1986 Gorkhaland movement. Later, after the formation of the DGHC he was the vice chairman of the administration. After his demise, the DGHC had upgraded the then small Sukna School and renamed it BB Gurung Memorial High School, Sukna.
The Gurung (Tamu) Youth Association itself came into existence today in a meeting held at Gorkha Jan Pustakalay in Kurseong. The association is the youth wing of Akhil Bhartiya Gurung (Tamu) Baudh Sangathan.
Gurung (Tamu) Youth Association spokesperson Santa Kishor Gurung said the youth wing was formed for development of Gurung Community on different aspects. He said the parent organization has already submitted deputations to the CM during her recent visit to Darjeeling hills demanding tribal status and the formation of a development board for all round development of the Gurung community.
