We welcome the decision of the Congress high command to entrust the CWC with the task of taking the final decision about the demand to bifurcate Andhra Pradesh to carve out Telangana,- Roshan Giri “But at the same time, the Centre should not underestimate the demand for Gorkhaland, as it is the oldest statehood demand in the country, dating back to well over 100 years. Besides, we made it clear in the letter that the Gorkhaland state must comprise the three sub-divisions of the Darjeeling Hills, Terai and Dooars,” - Roshan Giri Referring to the resolution passed unanimously in the Sikkim Assembly in March 2011 in favour of Gorkhaland, Roshan Giri said the resolution had held the cause of Gorkhaland as genuine, legally justified and within the parameters of the Constitution.
