GANGTOK, 25 Mar: Sikkim Krantikari Morcha president PS Tamang [Golay] today filed his nomination papers for Upper Burtuk here at District Administrative Centre at Sichey at around one o’clock this afternoon. Along with him, 11 other SKM candidates also filed their nomination papers today for the forthcoming assembly and parliamentary elections.
SKM Lok Sabha candidate, TN Dhakal, also filed his nomination papers before the Returning Officer, East, AK Singh.
Dismissing rumors of dissidence within the party after it declared the names of candidates, the SKM president said that the party has adopted a democratic process for selecting candidates and will abide by the decision of the Parliamentary Board.
When asked about Chopel Dzongpo Bhutia, an SKM ticket aspirant from Gnathang-Machong, leaving the party and joining Sikkim Democratic Front, Mr Tamang stated that he has not been informed of Mr Bhutia’s departure from his party. “I have nothing to say to those who are not interested to be part of the struggle for change and are only running after party tickets,” he said.
After filing his nomination, he was received by the people of Upper Burtuk outside the Returning Officer’s office. He then held a public meeting at the Barpipal area of Sichey where he addressed the people of Upper Burtuk.
Mr Tamang will file his nomination papers for Namthang-Rateypani on Wednesday at Namchi, it is informed.
