GANGTOK, : The EIECOS+1, an umbrella organisation of 12 left-out Sikkimese communities pursuing ST status demand, has strongly condemned the divisive comments made against the Khas community by Samson Tamang.
“Recently, an ill-willed person, Samsung Tamang, with intentions of dividing our social fabric, targeted the Khas community and made divisive comments against it. EIECOS+1 strongly condemn the statement and stands with our Khas community brethren during these times,” said EIECOS+1 in a press statement today.
We urge the police authorities to expedite the arrest of the culprit who has spread communal venom and hatred against the Khas community of Sikkim, demanded the organisation.
“We stand strongly with our Khas brothers and sisters and hope that arresting the man and giving him the strictest punishment would be an example for anyone trying to break the fabric of the brotherhood of Sikkim,” said EIECOS+1.
