Writes Vivek Chhetri
Darjeeling, March 7: The Trinamul Congress today said at least one of the party's winning candidates from the hills would be made a minister.
Rajen Mukhia, president of Trinamul (Hills), who held a meeting with party office bearers here today, said: "There will be lot of development in the hills after Trinamul wins the polls. One of the winning candidates will be a minister."
Two Trinamul candidates, Shanta Chhetri (Kurseong) and Sharda Rai Subba (Darjeeling), attended the meet. Harka Bahadur Chhetri had been named as the Kalimpong candidate but the MLA has said he would contest as a Jan Andolan Party candidate.
Mukhia said: "Shanta Chhetri, a three-time MLA, is an experienced candidate. Sharda Subba is a new face. People in the hills want change and we are hopeful that the people will bring a change this time." He said the party's main plank would be good governance, peace and development.
