The Chief Minister urged the new members to sincerely abide by SKM’s ideology and work to serve the masses and strive towards taking Sikkim to greater heights.

Notably, the Sikkim National People’s Party was formed in 2008 by Biraj Adhikari and Delay Namgyal Barfungpa.

However, Adhikari joined the Baichung Bhutia-led Hamro Sikkim Party in 2018 following which Barfungpa was elected as the party president by its members.
