एसडीएफ पार्टीको एउटा महत्वपुर्ण सभा पार्टी अध्यक्ष श्रीमान पवन चामलिङको निवासमा आज सम्पन्न गरियो।सभा पार्टीको प्रचारप्रसार मामिला र अग्र वक्ताहरूको समन्वयमा आयोजित गरियो।
सभालाई अध्यक्षीय सम्बोधन गर्नुहुदै श्री पवन चामलिङले " असल नेता उसँग रहेको असल विचारले बन्छ,असल विचारले नै असल सिद्धान्त बनाउँछ । त्यही असल सिद्धान्तले मात्र असल नीति बनाउँछ। असल नीतिले असल कार्यक्रम बनाउंछ। असल कार्यक्रमले मात्र असल सरकार बनांछ। अहिले सिक्किममा असल सरकार नहुनाले हाम्रो सरकार कालमा प्रफुल्लित जनता विक्षिप्त बनेका छन। जनतालाई न्याय दिलाउन उनिहरुको हक दिलाउन र सुखमय जीवन दिलाउन एसडीएफ पार्टी लागिपर्नुपर्छ भनी बताउनुभयो। एसडीएफ सरकारकालमा कृषि उत्पादित सामाग्री माथि रहेका सबै करहरु मिनाहा गरिएको थियो। किसानले आफ्नो उत्पाद बेच्दा कुनै ट्याक्स तिर्नु पर्दैन्थ्यो।बीजुली बत्ति निशुल्क गरिएको थियो तर अहिले सबैमा कर लादिएको छ। त्यसताक पशुपालन र सागसब्जी उत्पादन मौलाएर आएको थियो। ग्रामीण जनताका जीवनमा खुसीयाली त्यसै छाएको थिएन,त्यो हाम्रै असल कार्यक्रमको सुखद फल थियो। तर अहिले यो व्यवस्था नै मासिएर गएको छ र नै ग्रामिण जनता पीरमा छन भनी वहाँले जनाउनु भयो।
एसडीएफ पार्टीले त्यहि जनताबाट खोसीएको खुसीयाली र न्याय फर्काएर पुन:जनतालाई हस्तान्तरण गर्न पुर्ण जिम्मेवारी लिनुपर्छ। जनतालाई आत्मनिर्भर बनाउन पार्टीले जनसंगठन बनाउनुपर्छ । जनतालाई उनीहरुको हक,हित र सुरक्षाबारे अवगत गराउनुपर्छ। जनतालाई उनीहरुको शत्रु चिनाइदिनुपर्छ। आफ्ना हक,हित र सुरक्षाका लागि अघि बढ्ने र शत्रुसँग लड्न सक्ने बनाउंनै पर्छ। हामीले जनतालाई यस कार्यमा पुरा साथ र सहयोग पुर्‍याउनु पर्छ। जसरी कस्तुरीलाई नाभिमा सुगन्ध भएर पनि उसलाई थाहा हुदैन त्यसरी नै जनतामा निहित शक्ति पनि उनीहरुले थाहा पाइसकेका हुदैनन् ।हामीले त्यही सर्वपरी शक्ति उनीहरुलाई चिनाइदिनुपर्छ। जनताको जीत निश्चित गर्ने यसभन्दा अर्को उपाय छैन।
सरकारको काम जनतालाई सुख दिनु हो तर अहिलेको सरकारचाहिं दुख दिनेकाम गरिरहेको छ। आपत-विपतबाट जनतालाई बचाउने सरकारको काम हो।तर ग्यास सिलिन्डर र पेट्रोल डिजलको जनतालाई सिधै लदाएर आफु सुखसयलमा बस्ने काम यो सरकारले गर्यो। यस्ता मुद्दामा जनतालाई एक गरेर अघि बढाउने र उनीहरुको दुखमा साथ रहिदिने काम हामीले गर्नुपर्छ। हाम्रो साथ र सहयोगबाट मात्र जनताले सुखको दिशा पाउनेछन भनि अवगत गराउनु भयो।
सभामा उपस्थित सबै सदस्यहरुले आ आफ्ना सुझाव राख्दै पार्टीको सन्देशलाई जनतासम्म पुर्‍याउने दृढता व्यक्त गरे। भावी रणनीति माथि पार्टीले गोलबद्दभै कार्य गर्ने निधो पनि गरे।

PRESS RELEASE

ORGANIC SIKKIM: A BRAND OF CONVENIENCE FOR SKM

The announcement of ₹583 crore in Central support for organic agriculture and infrastructure growth in Sikkim is welcome news for the people of Sikkim. During his recent visit to Sikkim, Union Minister Jyotiraditya Scindia launched Mission Sikkim Organics, a ₹360 crore initiative aimed at transforming Sikkim into a globally integrated premium organic economy benefiting over 66,000 farming families.

While the SDF party welcomes this support, an important question remains: why does the SKM government champion Sikkim’s organic brand before the Centre while completely neglecting the organic mission within the state?

Whether before the 16th Finance Commission, in Parliament through demands for a Green Bonus, or before Union Ministries, the SKM government continues to invoke Sikkim’s organic mission and green initiatives while asking for financial assistance. Yet on the ground, the organic mission that once made Sikkim a global brand in sustainable agriculture has altogether become obsolete.

A serious blow to Sikkim’s organic reputation came in October 2024 when the Sikkim State Organic Certification Agency (SSOCA) was suspended by APEDA, Government of India. The suspension came after findings that inorganic rice had been certified as organic rice from Sikkim by SSOCA for export. Along with Reliteaur Foods Private Limited, a private company involved in the exports, SSOCA was suspended for one year and fined ₹10 lakh.

This incident tarnished the integrity of Sikkim’s organic certification system, thus seriously defaming Sikkim’s organic brand in international markets. Despite the shame brought on to Sikkim by this certification scam, the SKM government gave no explanation and took no action. Mr Sudhir Giri was heading SSOCA when the suspension occurred. Despite the seriousness of the incident which defamed Sikkim globally, he continues to head the organisation. Why has the government not taken action till date?

The concerns surrounding SSOCA are not isolated. Farmers have repeatedly raised concerns regarding declining support systems, seed availability, market access, and certification processes. It is well known that inorganic fertilisers and pesticides are being used across Sikkim today, thus completely undoing the decades of hard work that led to 100% organic status. Reports have been received of old data being used for certification of land as organic, highlighting concerns regarding the continued monitoring and verification processes required to maintain organic certification standards.

The Organic Mission in the world’s first organic state is in a state of ruin. The Mission was not merely a government scheme; it was a historic policy initiative that began in 2003 under the leadership of former Chief Minister Shri Pawan Chamling and culminated in Sikkim achieving 100 percent organic status in 2016. The achievement brought international recognition, including the prestigious Future Policy Gold Award from the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations in 2018. The Organic brand is synonymous with Sikkim today.

Unfortunately the double standard approach of the SKM government with regard to the organic mission in Sikkim and at the centre clearly indicates that the SKM government is only using the mission as a brand of convenience for securing central assistance. The SDF party strongly condemns the SKM government’s use of the Organic Sikkim brand as a tool for securing funds while neglecting the organic mission on the ground.

VIDEO RELEASE

The odd-even vehicle regulation was a source of considerable inconvenience and confusion across the state over the past several days. In an attempt to appease the Centre, the SKM government implemented the measure without adequate consultation or careful consideration of its impact on the people of Sikkim.

When the opposition raised concerns regarding the decision, Chief Minister Shri Prem Singh Golay dismissed the criticism and labelled those questioning the move as “anti-national.” However, within just two hours of a press release issued by the BJP, the state government withdrew its notification on the odd-even rule.

The SKM government was unwilling to listen to the concerns of the people till now but acted immediately when the BJP intervened. This makes it increasingly clear who truly influences and directs the functioning of the Sikkim government.
