Gangtok, April 30: The five opposition Political parties, despite having favoured non political Panchayat and Municipality election, have unanimously decided to give a fitting reply to the challenge of the SDF party to go for Panchayat and Municipality election on party line, stated a joint press release issued by opposition political parties signed by President Pradesh Congress, President Pradesh BJP, CPI(M) State Committee Member, President Gorkha Prajatantrik Party and President Sikkim Himali Rajya Parishad Party.
The opposition Political parties decided to fight the Panchayat and Municipality election with tactical understanding with the objective to sweep the election. However no party will sacrifice the ideology of the individual party - the opposition political party will field its candidates only against the SDF and not against each other.
The ruling party will have its representative in all Panchayat and Municipality though its MLA and MP by the Act itself. To make it truly representative of all parties to avoid monopoly of single party, the opposition will plead to elect their representative in Panchayat and Municipality ward only from opposition political parties so that the Panchayat and Municipality can act like an non political set up in which the ideology of none of the party will prevail, opposition parties mentioned.
With this mandate in the Panchayat and Municipality election, the opposition parties would consider that the people have given the mandate to the combined opposition to solve the burning problem of reservation of seats in the Assembly not only for the Limboo and Tamang as Scheduled Tribes but also for Nepalese as a whole beside keeping provision to section other than Sikkimese Bhutia- Lepcha and Nepalese.
In the event of the combined opposition parties given a mandate of 75% and above, the combined opposition parties will evolve the formula of reservation of seats in State Assembly within a month and will go to Delhi to pursue with the UPA Government, NDA and other major opposition political parties and get the same solved within 3 months.

i'm desperately awaiting the battle...
