Leaders in charge of the party since 2017 blamed for problems. Vishnu Golay, who was the the Trinamul Youth Congress president of Darjeeling and Kalimpong hills blamed the leaders
Vivek Chhetri | TT | Darjeeling | 08.10.20 : The president of Trinamul Youth Congress (Hills) resigned along with a few other functionaries on Wednesday, baring the seriousness of the factionalism in Trinamul’s hill leadership.
Vishnu Golay, who was the the Trinamul Youth Congress president of Darjeeling and Kalimpong hills, blamed the leaders in charge of the party since 2017 for the problems.
“The president (L.B. Rai, TMC (hills) and Shanta didi (Shanta Chhetri, Trinamul’s Rajya Sabha member) never allowed youths to work independently,” alleged Golay.
He said that apart from him the working president of the youth front (hills) Anup Thatal and secretary Lalit Baraily were also resigning.
“I had placed my grievances before L.B. Rai a couple of months back but he had not tried to address any of our grievances,” alleged Golay.
The TMC, which is in power in Mirik municipality — Rai chairs the civic body — is in alliance with Gorkha Janmukti Morcha (Binay camp).
Golay said that many other leaders who had started working for Trinamul in the hills around 2011 were peeved with the way the party was functioning now.
A senior TMC leader took a serious view of the development: “The present leadership is trying to poach supporters from our alliance. We should stay united at this moment.”
Rai and Chhetri could not be contacted for their comments.
