GTA functioning with ‘zero’ dev policy: Mahendra P Lama
EOI, Jalpaiguri, 2 May 2014: Darjeeling Lok Sabha independent candidate Mahendra P Lama has said GJM chief Bimal Gurung is yet to come up with any constructive development policy to leverage the Gorkhaland Territorial Administration of which he is the chief executive.
Lama, founder of the apolitical Darjeeling-Dooars United Development Foundation, made the comment this morning while visiting the currently closed Red Bank tea estate in Banarhat.
Speaking on issues related to the development of hill residents, Lama said the GTA has taken no initiative to revive the closed and ‘sick’ tea estates across the hills and the Dooars. In his words, GTA is functioning under a “zero policy” and making no effort towards development.
Lama said the DDUDF’s objective is to prioritise the socio-economic enhancement of tea workers of the region. The DDUDF chairman discussed several vital issues with workers while making his rounds across the estate.
