As part of the exercise, the SDF party volunteers will record the demands, opinions & grievances of each member. The party will work towards resolving these demands in the first 100 days of the government. The exercise in line with party’s philosophy of “Janta Raj Ma Jantai Raja” (people are king’s in a democracy). In effect, the people of Sikkim will set the agenda of the Government, the Chamling added.

In a unique format, Chamling boarded a local taxi (Savari) to travel from the capital Gangtok to Namchi, as a mark of respect to the driver’s fraternity and their role as ambassadors of the State. The Chief Minister was joined in by thousands of enthusiastic volunteers in a car rally which took off from Lal Bazaar and covering Ranipool-Sintam-Mamring-Namthang-Bhanjyang, culminating at Namchi.

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 ...
