Gorkha National Liberation Front (GNLF) chief Subhas Ghising (1936-2015) breathed his last on the afternoon of 29th. Jan 2015 in a hospital in New Delhi. Aged 79 years, he was ailing since many months and his condition had improved a lot. But suddenly his condition deteriorated since two days back. He was born on June 22 in 1936.
Hospital authorities have released a statement stating that Shri Subash Ghising was suffering from Pneumonia and Liver Cancer, and that he had been admitted to the ICU for the past few days.
His funeral is expected to take place tomorrow at Siliguri.

The Gorkhaland movement grew from the demand of ethnic Gorkha living in Darjeeling District of West Bengal for a separate state in 1986. He was born on 22 June 1936 at Manju Tea Estate in Darjeeling.
