Gorkha Janmukti Morcha general secretary Roshan Giri today accused
the GNLF of kowtowing to Trinamul and said the party had "lost its
plot".
Reacting to the meeting between GNLF president Mann Ghisingh and
chief minister Mamata Banerjee yesterday, Giri told reporters in
Darjeeling: "How can GNLF, under whose leadership over 1,200 people
sacrificed their lives for Gorkhaland, join hands with a party whose
chief has repeatedly voiced her opposition to the creation of a state
for the Gorkhas? The party has lost the plot completely."
He added: "The GNLF will now be reduced to playing second fiddle to
Trinamul in the municipality and the GTA elections. The party stands
thoroughly exposed and is fast on its way to losing relevance in the
hills completely."
After yesterday's meeting, GNLF leaders had said they were open to contesting polls in alliance with Trinamul.(TT)
