My flag widget for my blog shows 112,244 page views and 173 fags collected in one year

I am loving this !, Last January 21, 2012, I had installed a flag widget for my blog " PROUD TO BE A SIKKIMESE" and today after a year my flag widget shows 112,244 page views and 173 fags collected. It gives me pleasure and enjoyment that my work is being appreciated. When I started this blog some 6 years back I was told by my friend to write about Darjeeling or Human Rights, they told me no one shall read about 'Sikkim'. I believed in my instinct and the result I see is awesome.

Thank you, my dear friends knowing-unknowing we have shared half a decade and I would surely be happy if I get to know each one personally. Let this love and warmth remain with me in near future too.

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.

Sikkim closes for a day in support of their CM

A 12-hour bandh call by the supporters of the ruling SDF party was observed today.

Except for Army and GREF all other Vehicles, as well as shops, were closed. Such a state bandh was last held ten years back. (photographs from Singtam)

Snake like fish caught in Singtam River

The Indian mottled eel, locally known as Raj Bam, was recovered from the Singtam River at Golitar this early morning. The snake-like fish weighed around 7 kg and was four feet long. The local people said that they had never seen this species for so long. Such mysterious-looking marine fish are also sighted from time to time on the river banks, local people added.
