Gorkha body urges Modi govt to consider demand for separate state

 The National Gorkhaland Committee (NGC), a non-political organisation of Gorkhas, has urged the BJP government to look into their longstanding demand for the creation of a separate state of Gorkhaland in West Bengal's Darjeeling hill region. The office bearers of NGC said for the Gorkhas, a separate state would be the only political solution to the more than 100-year-old demand.
