GANGTOK, October 27: Though Darjeeling people are stilling pinning their hopes on the Sikkim Chief Minister Pawan Chamling’s promise to pass a resolution in the Assembly in support of separate Gorkhaland state, the ruling Sikkim Democratic Front (SDF) party today said that the resolution will be passed at an ‘opportune time’.
“The Chief Minister’s statement is on record. We will definitely pass the resolution at the opportune time like during the Nepali language movement”, said SDF party spokesperson and Press Advisor to the Chief Minister, BB Gooroong today.

Has the Chief Minister ever said that he will not pass the resolution?, Mr. Gooroong countered. He reminded that the present Gorkhaland movement is just begun and tripartite talks are being held with the Gorkhaland protagonists just handing documents to the Centre.

The Chief Minister has not showed his cards and he knows when to display his cards. The time has not come and we will act timely, said Mr. Gooroong.
