Damber Singh Gurung's birth anniversary forgotten
Mukesh Sharma
Kalimpong,23rd Jan
At a
time when the hills was remembering Fredom Fighter Subash Chandra Bose
in grand manner but coincidentally today is also the birthday of Damber
Singh Gurung A
Gorkha in the Constituent Assembly. No
event was organised anywhere in hills by the concerned Gorkha body or
administration.
Damber Singh Gurung was a politician,
lawyer and social worker of the Indian Gorkha community. He founded the
Akhil Bharatiya Gorkha League, a political party, in 1943. D.S Gurung
represented the Indian Gorkha community in the Constituent Assembly of
India till his death in 1948, after which Ari Bahadur Gurung took his
place.
It is in his name that Kalimpong's famous Damber Chowk has been
named and DS Gurung Road has been named but No Social or
political organsitaion took out a time to put even a Flower or Khada at
the statue of the Great Gorkha Leader on the occasion of his 113rd Birth
Celebration.
Sadly even the party he founded - Akhil Bharatiya Gorkha League forgot to celebrate his birthday.
One of the Social media who too share the news got only like but no comment.
