Five schools from around the vicinity were invited, students from Lokdara, Posakay, Gyangyap, Rongli, Rolep and Chujachen exhibited a plethora of scientific models (self made). 

Main motive behind this programme was to generate scientific temper among the students that even primary students from feeder school were invited to participate. Those students were taken to Atal Tinkering Lab. The students were told they can visit the lab at any time in future. 

Miss Chettri stated that programs like these act as a launch pad for future researchers and scientists. She further added that the sole purpose of the exhibition/program was to inculcate scientific temperament in the students and also to promote learning via experience. Mr. Gurung briefly addressed everyone present in the program where he encouraged and congratulated everyone for making the day wholesome. The program ended on a very sweet note as the auditorium was filled with smiling faces after the prize distribution.

Baba Harbhajan Singh: A story of a dead sepoy

He has defeated death. Believe it or not, but it is true, a kind story in the world- a man from an Indian army on a Nathula border is still doing his duty even after his death some three decades back. 60km from Gangtok towards the panoramic view of the Nathula landscape, a road leads towards the valley of Kupup. Here is the shrine of Baba Harbhajan, popularly known as Baba Mandir. Baba Harbhajan has been guarding the international boundary of the two Asian giants, China and India, over the last three decades. But believe me, he does it alone. Even the army men on the other side of the International Wall confirmed that they had seen a man riding a horse all alone patrolling the border.  Born in Brondal village of Kapurthala, Punjab, Harbhajan Singh joined the 23 rd Punjab Battalion in February 1966 as a sepoy. The year 1968, when the states of Sikkim and North Bengal were under the rage of great natural disasters where, landslides, floods, and heavy rain had taken thousan...

The legend of April "73" Agitation in Sikkim

I was not born when Sikkim got merged with the mighty Indian Union, but being a student of Sikkim History, all that is available to me is a rack of books by different authors and those old folks who had been part of that historical “April ‘73’ Agitation”.  When I go through the history of Sikkim, April ‘73 Agitation holds an important role, mostly as the turning point of the Independent Sikkim and the Sikkim State. The mass demonstrations against the Chogyal rule shocked the 300-year-old monarchy system and ushered in democratic rule in Sikkim.  The agitation was a result “due to big differences which ensued with the demand of repoll in one booth by Kazi Lhendup Dorji and Mr. Krishna Chandra Pradhan, as such the Chogyal had to face the people’s agitation launched by the Joint Action Committee with the tacit blessings of the Government of India. This people’s political movement spearheaded by Kazi Lhendup Dorji finally resulted in Sikkim joining the mainstream as the 22nd State...
