Ranjan Sharma Media Coordinator stated that the seminar is organised by the Darjeeling Foundation, a Delhi based think tank supported by intellectuals, academics, public figures and business leaders from Darjeeling as well as other parts of the country with the support of Gorkhali Sudhar Sabha, Dehradun.
It is conceived as a private, not for profit body to influence public opinion and mould views of the political class as well as executive on the issue of separate state of Gorkhaland comprising Darjeeling and surrounding areas.
The idea is to help clear misconceptions relating to Gorkhaland issue through seminars, public discussion, debate, research and publications.
