Part 1 | Unveiling Gorkhaland - Everything You Need To know | The Cord

Описание: A statehood demand which is more than a hundred years old is still in the hearts of the Indian Gorkhas. For a long time, Indian Gorkhas have felt left out by the different governments ruling them. Despite repetitive demands, memorandums, bills, protests, and violence, statehood is still a dream for the Indian Gorkhas. They have experienced a lot of racial discrimination, and identity crises throughout the nation and even abroad, which makes this statehood demand- a demand for identity.
What exactly is this demand? How did it come into existence? Why do the Indian Gorkhas feel left out?
The Cord presents a Two-part in-depth story about the statehood demand, with “Unveiling Gorkhaland - Everything You Need To know.” In this, we have tried to cover the story from the start till the present in numbers, to help you understand the historical reasons behind the rise of this demand.
