By himalayanreview

GANGTOK (SIKKIM), DECEMBER 21, 2021: The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has appointed Mr Lobzang G Tenzing, President of Sikkim Cricket Association (SICA), as the Manager of the India Under-19 Team that will play in the Asia Cup tournament organised by the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) in the UAE from December 23 and ICC Under 19 Cricket World Cup in West Indies from January 14.



BCCI Secretary named Mr Tenzing as the Under-19 Team Manager for the Asia Cup tournament to be played from December 23 to 31 and ICC Under 19 Cricket World Cup to be played from January 14 to February 5, 2022. Mr Tenzing has been the President of SICA since 2016, and under his dynamic leadership, the small state has made its mark in the East Zone with its men and women’s teams under different age categories.

“I am pleased and honoured to be in the presence of the future cricket stars of the country. I hope to bring some dazzles of these stars back home and to our region. I am also immensely thankful to Shri Jay Shah secretary BCCI for giving me such honour and responsibility. His concern and commitment for developing NE is real and it shows in his action.” Say, Mr Tenzing.



Being a proactive cricket administrator, Mr Tenzing has worked hard for ensuring better infrastructure, enhanced funds and recognition from BCCI for state cricket bodies of not only his home state Sikkim but also the north-eastern states as a whole. The Sikkim Cricket Association is proud that BCCI has reposed his trust in the administrative abilities by appointing him as the Manager of the India Under-19 team and also feels that his new responsibility will give a boost to the confidence of the Northeast cricket associations in producing national-level players and administrators of the game.

Bhandari, former Chief Minister of Sikkim. I had just completed my graduation when I got a chance to join the big-wig WR team. It took me a week to decide, and I was a news reporter. Even then, my primary concern was looking for Sikkim's old history. The new job was interesting, challenging, and more of an adventure. I never knew what I would do the next day or where I would be.  I was only told to file a report to the newspaper office at Gangtok every Thursday. I was associated with the WR team for more than two years till our editor was replaced, and I found it uncomfortable to work with the new editor. His lack of journalism ethics made me leave WR. Within the fol...

REMEMBERING FALLEN HEROES

In memory of the brave Gorkha soldiers of the Darjeeling Hills who laid down their lives for the greater cause of the motherland, Nayan Subba takes the opportunity to recall their contributions on the occasion of the 58th Republic Day The Gorkhas are a small little community in India where people of diverse origins mingle to contribute a great composite Indian culture. They are the descendants of General Amar Singh Thapa who invaded India and annexed Garhwal and Kumaon that included the hill stations of Simla, Musssoorie, Lansdowne, Almora, Nainital, Ranikhet and Pithoragarh.

The British defeated the Gorkhas during the Anglo Gorkha war of 1814-16 and the lands they had conquered were ceded to the British and re-profiled.
