Gorkhaland has to be created too, says GJM

The tripartite talks are scheduled on October 23, the GJM has claimed.

GJM General Secretary Roshan Giri had on September 30 said that the Morcha received a phone call from the Ministry of Home Affairs inviting it to participate in the tripartite talks to be held on October 23 in New Delhi.  

Earlier, the Gorkhaland Joint Action Committee had suspended the indefinite agitation for Gorkhaland in the Darjeeling hills till October 20 in deference to the appeal by the Union Home Minister Sushilkumar Shinde to call it off to facilitate tripartite talks.

But the party set a condition that the talks had to be convened by October 20.
