BJP vice president and nominee for the Darjeeling Lok
Sabha seat, S.S. Ahluwalia on Wednesday voiced support to the formation
of a separate state of Gorkhaland.
“The BJP has
always supported creation of smaller states as Jharkhand and Chattisgarh
and was in favour of Telangana and so Gorkhaland should also be
formed”, Mr. Ahluwalia told reporters here.
Criticising
the Trinamool Congress government, the party nominee alleged that while
it was not supporting the demand for withdrawal of cases filed against
those during the Gorkhaland agitation, the ruling party members who were
involved were being spared.
Claiming that the demand
for a separate hill state was not against the constitution, Mr.
Ahluwalia predicted the BJP alone will be capable to form the next
government in the country.
