Frustration driving SDF towards violence, alleges SKM

GANGTOK, 04 Apr: Sikkim Krantikari Morcha [SKM] has alleged that Sikkim Democratic Front [SDF] is resorting to violence due to fear and frustration over the growing support for SKM in the state.
Addressing a press conference today, SKM general secretary [women’s wing] Pabitra Bhandari said that in the past five days the state has recorded numerous attacks on Opposition and SKM supporters by SDF supporters and candidates at difference places in the state.
While strongly condemning these attacks, Ms Bhandari demanded that the SDF party stop such activities and further asked the administration to work independently without bias.
SKM general secretary [legal] Sonam Bhutia accused the caretaker government of abusing the law & order machinery and alleged favoritism by the police. Taking SKM supporters into preventive custody during election time is an attempt to subdue the party, he stated further adding that all the sections registered by the police against SKM supporters are inappropriate.
It was further alleged that the case against the CLC president Ganja Bhutia is totally false and fabricated. 

SKM advisor, KP Adhikari stated that the kind of language used by the SDF president Pawan Chamling in his speeches was inappropriate and unacceptable. He also refuted allegations of the party playing politics on communal lines as totally false and baseless.
