Golay re-elected as SKM president

GANGTOK, : Chief Minister P.S. Golay was re-elected as the president of Sikkim Krantikari Morcha on Monday.

At the party’s central executive committee meeting at Manan Kendra here, minister Arun Upreti proposed Golay’s name for another term, emphasizing his role in strengthening the party. The proposal was seconded by minister Sonam Lama.

Golay thanked the party members for his re-election, and the trust and responsibility bestowed upon him. He also expressed his gratitude to the people of Sikkim and pledged to work towards the State’s growth in various sectors.

Golay credited the SKM’s inclusive political ideology and initiatives like Aama Shashaktikaran Yojana, Bahini Yojana, SGAY, Mero Rukh Mero Santati and Janta Bhet Karyakram for earning the people’s trust. These programs have promoted transparency and direct engagement with the government, he said.

The meeting was the first since the SKM’s victory in the 2024 general elections where they won 31 out of 32 Assembly seats. Golay dedicated the victory to the hard work and unity of the party workers.

“Their relentless efforts and unity were pivotal, and I wholeheartedly dedicate this success to them. Together, we will continue to strive for the progress and prosperity of our beloved Sikkim,” Golay wrote on Facebook.

He also recalled the party’s struggle days in 2009 and expressed gratitude to all those who have supported the party since then.

“Thank you all for your unwavering support and dedication. Let's move forward together with renewed vigour and determination. I assure you that the party will give justice to all our karyakartas and will always stand beside them,” Golay wrote, adding that he will meet and interact with the party workers after the Budget session.

Despite the dissolution of the CEC, DLC, CLC, WLC and all party portfolios today, Golay assured that the party would continue to work for Sikkim’s progress until new appointments are made.
