Lall Bazaar group to petition CS and DGP

GANGTOK, 27 May: A section of the traders of Lall Bazaar will be submitting a memorandum to the Chief Secretary and the Director General of Police on Wednesday regarding what they see as high handedness by the Gangtok Municipal Corporation Deputy Mayor Shakti Singh and councilor Udai Lama recently. A similar memorandum was submitted to the Governor on Monday.
One of the traders, Lakpa Sherpa, speaking on behalf of the business community of Lall Bazaar, today said, “Udai Lama is saying that we [business community] are from outside and do not belong to Sikkim. If this is true then he should prove that we are from outside and do not belong to Sikkim”. He further said that all businesses across Sikkim will shut down if he fails to prove such allegations.
“Shutting down of Lall Bazaar and MG Marg was just the beginning but if they still keep tormenting us then we will shut down the whole of Sikkim”, he stated.

There was some postering on this issue in Siliguri and if vegetables and essential commodities stop coming from Siliguri then the councilors in question should be held responsible, said Mr. Sherpa.
