The Telegraph
Kalimpong, March 25: The Janamukti Secondary Teachers’ Organisation has threatened to file a defamation suit against urban development minister Asok Bhattacharya, reports our correspondent.
The minister had accused the Gorkha Janmukti Morcha of demanding Rs 2 crore from hill schools in a meeting on March 1. The Morcha-affiliate challenged Bhattacharya to prove his allegation.
The meeting at Gorubathan between the Morcha and the school heads had been called to work out the admission modalities of the students from the Dooars in the hill institutions, the JSTO said.

I don’t think the people in Dooars and their education is any concern of Gorkha Janmukti Morcha.They can all go to any government schools nearby for where in the world can you get free education in such elite ICSE schools unless the Gorkha Janmuti Marcha is going to pay from their own kitty which they obviously won’t do coz at the end of the day all politicians are for themselves.They don’t actually feel anybody’s pain or sorrow.They are happy with their pockets full.
