BJP Lok Sabha candidate from Darjeeling, SS Ahluwalia, today arrived in Mirik as part of his election campaign where he tried to woo voters asserting his party is in favour of formation of smaller states. Urging the people to cast their votes to the lotus symbol, Ahluwalia pledged to do everything possible for the formation of a separate state here. Citing the formation of Uttarakhand, Jharkhand and Chhattisgarh during the NDA rule, he said if the people of Darjeeling promote him to Parliament, he can strive for achieving statehood for them.
Slamming TMC president Mamata Banerjee, Ahluwalia said, “When the BJP government was at the Centre, Mamata Banerjee was the railway minister. Why didn’t she stand up against the formation of new states when three were being formed right before her eyes?”
The BJP candidate, who is enjoying the GJM’s support, said the entire country is under the Modi wave and urged the people to give the maximum mandate to the BJP so that a “new nation” can be established. He also said Narendra Modi will visit Siliguri on April 12.
