Trinamool Congress should take clear stand on GJMM agitation: Md Salim

      The Centre's nod to initiate the process for the formation of the Telangana State, has given an opportunity to the various political parties to come forward with their own benefits. To add to the problems of the Central Government, the whole country seems to have come forward demanding statehood in different regions. Meanwhile, the different political outfits for their own vested interests have ignited the 96-hour fast called by the Gorkhaland. The Congress, the BJP and even the Trinamool Congress have fanned the Gorkhaland fire before different elections in the state to gain benefit for themselves. The CPI (M) has today asked the opposition Trinamool Congress to make its stand clear on the Gorkhaland issue. Senior CPI (M) leader Md Salim claims that over the last two decades, different political parties from the BJP to the Congress to the Trinamool Congress have offered tacit support to the violent agitators of the Gorkha Jana Mukti Morcha (GJMM) to gain their support to win the elections. However, Md Salim said the time has now come for Trinamool Congress to make its stand clear on whether they supported the violent Gorkhaland agitation for a separate state or not. It may be recalled here that Trinamool Congress leader Mamata Banerjee has over a period of time made contradictory statements in relation to the party's stand to the Gorkhaland issue. Banerjee recently said that she did not want Bengal to be divided, but had kept quite on the agitation by the GJMM The CPI (M) is trying to create pressure on the main opposition party in West Bengal to take a clear stand on the issue now. However, addressing a press conference today, Banerjee made no comments on the Gorkhaland agitation.
