New Delhi [India], December 17 (ANI): In an important development, political parties that operate primarily in the northern-most district of West Bengal along with Raju Bista, Darjeeling MP, on Thursday met Minister of State G Kishan Reddy at the North Block to find a permanent solution to problems of the region.
They discussed the demand for a permanent political solution to the Darjeeling hills, Terai and Dooars and also the re-listing of 11 Gorkha communities in Scheduled Tribe category.
After attending the meeting, Bista said, This is a positive development. We all know the Gorkhas have been carrying with them the tag of bahari . The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in its 2019 election manifesto said that they would bring a permanent political solution for the people of Darjeeling h

Hill leaders in Calcutta and Delhi for talks Political situation seems to be aligned between two power centres, Trinamul and the BJP
Anit Thapa, the chairman of the board of administrators at the Gorkhaland Territorial Administration, was in Calcutta, while leaders of four different hill parties were in Delhi on Wednesday to meet BJP leaders.
It is safe to assume that no local political leader worth his salt is in the Darjeeling hills now.
This is a clear indication that regional politics is being shaped by state and central politics, said an observer.
Anit Thapa of the Gorkha Janmukti Morcha’s Binay Tamang camp is in Calcutta for an “administrative meeting” when all current discussion in Darjeeling is politics.
