On December 20 last year, ruling Sikkim Krantikari Morcha’s (SKM) leader Dr Shiva Kumar Sharma and Namchi District SDF president C L Gurung quit their respective parties.
Namchi District SDF president C L Gurung also resigned from SDF after being with the party for 30 years. In his resignation letter, Gurung said that he is resigning from the Namchi SDF District President position and from the primary membership of the party due to personal reasons. Gurung thanked the party for all the opportunities. Prior to that, Sikkim’s main opposition party Sikkim Democratic Front (SDF)’s spokesperson Avinash Yaka also had resigned from the party.
In his resignation letter, Yakha blamed the party’s policies for his decision. Yakha said that he had supported SDF while it was in power and even as an Opposition party.
