A Right to Information response from the Central Government which answers the question "if Gorkha Janmukti Morcha has made representation on behalf of Gorkhaland or not, and what is the view of the Central government in this regard," was released to the press yesterday by GJM spokesperson Binay Tamang.
Speaking to the Press Mr. Tamang said, "opposition parties, especially leaders from JAP Dr. Harka Chettri, Mr. Amar Lama, Mr. Nayan Pradhan have repeatedly lied to the people and made false allegation that GJM never raised the issue of Gorkhaland with the Central government... to make this issue clear GJM RTI cell had filed an RTI application seeking clarification on the issue and the Central Government has responded with proof that we have repeatedly raised the Gorkhaland issue."
He stated, "When the agreement for GTA was signed, it is clearly mentioned that we are not dropping the demand for Gorkhaland and we haven't done so... we have been in constant talks with the Central government and we are confident Gorkhaland will be formed... unlike TMC leader Mamata, the Hon'ble PM has never spoken against Gorkhaland statehood, the Central Gorkhaland appreciates the need for forming smaller states and Gorkhaland is an important issue for them for which our talks are ongoing."
The RTI was however silent on what the Central Government's views were in this regard.
