PRAKRITI'S DREAM RUN COMES TO AN END

Prakriti Giri has been eliminated from Amul Star Voice of India-Chhote Ustaad, the musical reality show currently being aired on STAR Plus.

It was hoped that this 12-year-old girl from Darjeeling would follow the footsteps of Indian Idol 3 winner Prashant Tamang as she continued her steady climb in the show, making it to the top five. But unlike Prashant, Prakriti failed to grab enough votes from the audience which would have saved her from the elimination round.

The elimination episode is yet to be telecast and will be aired this Friday. The episode was canned late last night.

Although liked by the judges, Prakriti faced tough opponents in the form of Aishwarya from Ahmedabad and Anvesha Dutta from Kolkata. In all the voting episodes, Prakriti managed to secure enough votes to stay in the race. She also made a record of sorts by securing the highest number of votes in all the episodes. However, last week, Aishwarya beat her to the top spot with the highest number of votes.

Last week, she sang “Salamey Ishq” from the film Mukadar ka Sikandar, which was not up to the judges’ liking. In comparison to the more talented and better trained singers like Aishwarya and Anvesha, Prakriti’s performance lacked technical finesse and voice quality. Even the judges remarked that she had to really work hard if she wanted to stay in the competition and match up with the other remaining four contestants.

One of the family members of Prakiti, who is presently in Mumbai said over the telephone that she was eliminated after coming in the scary land (danger zone). According to the rules of the show, the elimination is not solely based on the number of votes polled by the contestants. The judges also play a vital part in deciding who gets out. The vote sent by the viewers is taken into consideration to select the bottom three with the lowest number of votes. The three contestants in the danger zone are then asked by the judges to sing a song each according to their choice. The judges then decide who goes home based on the contestant’s singing in that particular round.

The news might have disheartened many Prakriti Giri Fan clubs all over the country, but there is sill one last chance for them to bring her back in the competition through wild card, which is recently being introduced in the contest.

According to this format, the eight eliminated contestants, including Prakriti, will be given a final chance to perform and based on the maximum votes polled, only one contestant out of the eight will get the wild card entr

JANHA BAGCHA TEESTA RANGIT

This was a national song of Sikkim sung in the Nepali language during the monarchy system. During the merger with India, the song got banned and later re-released. Two words on the 8th para, which earlier said 'Rajah rah Rani,' were replaced with "Janmah bhumi."     This song was dedicated to the King and Queen of Sikkim. The song lyrics were penned by Sanu Lama, and the music was composed by Dushyant Lama.  The song was first sung on the birth anniversary of Chogyal Palden Thondup Namgyal on April 4, 1970, at Gangtok by Aruna Lama, Dawa Lama, and Manikamal Chettri.    JANHA BAGCHA TEESTA RANGIT,  JAHAN KANCHENDZONGA SEER   YEHI HO HAMRO DHANA KO DESH,  TAPAWAN HO PYARO SIKKIM     INTERLUDE     PHULCHAN YEHA AANGANAI MAA,  CHAAP , GURAS, SUNAKHARI   SWARGASARI SUNDAR DESH KO  HAMRO PYARO PYARO JANMAHBHUMI     JANHA BAGCHA……     BATASHLE BOKCHAA YAHA,  TATHAGAT KO AAMAR WAANI ...

CLARITY ON CITIZENSHIP (Indian of Sikkimese Origin)

from Sikkim Online CLARITY ON CITIZENSHIP Indian of Sikkimese Origin On 26th April 1975, Sikkim was appointed as 22nd state of India. On that day, Sikkim Citizens, Subject holder (Sikkimese) became Indian Citizen according to “Sikkim (Citizenship) Order, 1975” which says “Every person who immediately before the 26th day of April, 1975 was a Sikkim Subject under the Sikkim Subject Regulation 1961, shall be deemed to have become a citizen of India on that day”. As the Indian Constitution does not provide dual citizenship and there exist only citizenship for the whole of country, therefore, the regulation which provided Sikkim Citizenship (Subjects) commonly known as “Sikkim Subject Regulation Act, 1961” was repealed on 13th Sep 1975 according to “Adaptation of Sikkim Laws (No.1) Order” power conferred by clause (l) of Article 371-F of the Constitution which took effect from 26th April 1975 (appointed day). A million dollar question arises here. Who were Sikkim...

The last Chogyal (King) of Sikkim

BY SHITAL PRADHAN I was not born when Sikkim became the 22nd state of the Indian Union, and the only information I have about the political identity of my Sikkim comes from literary knowledge and conversations with elderly people. I personally believe that no nation can develop unless its history, culture, and heritage are preserved. Sikkim, though now part of India, bears the responsibility of every Sikkimese to safeguard its past glory. Interestingly, a few days ago, my college-going nephew surprised me when he mentioned that a man named STNM could be the last Chogyal, while one of my colleagues added that TNA and TNSSS also bear the name of the last Chogyal. Well, is this the future of Sikkim? If we cannot enable the younger generation to connect with the facts and authenticity of Sikkim, the state will surely lose its vivacious historical pages. Twenty-five long years have passed since the passing away of the last Chogyal of Sikkim, Late Chogyal Palden Thondup Namgyal. Apart fr...
