On the 1st of Jan, 2015 a youth from Kalimpong, Bivek Rasaili was stabbed to death during a fight in Tribeni.
It turned out that Bivek was the President of Gorkha National Students Front (GNSF) for the Kalimpong sub-division.
Following the murder, GNLF has demanded a high level inquiry into the killing, as Bivek was highly placed within GNLF Youth and his death is being seen as a conspiracy to silence the voice of dissent in the hills.
The police have already arrested the main accused Amir Rasaily, but GNLF cadres worry that a greater conspiracy to silence a leading GNLF youth leader could be hidden behind a mundane new year fight.
The GNLF has requested all the shops to down their shutters in Kalimpong today from 1 to 3 P.M and have demanded the arrest of the alleged 'mastermind.'
They have threatened that if the 'mastermind' is not arrested, they will call for a 12 hour Darjeeling bandh.
