Fond Farewell to a Beloved Sakyong Chisopani JHS

03.07.23: With a heavy heart, I gather my thoughts to pen down these lines. Today marks the end of an era as I bid adieu to this beloved school. It seems like just yesterday when I embarked on this journey. Reflecting upon the last decade, I feel immense gratitude for the opportunities that came my way. 



Along this path, I had the privilege of working with three exceptional Headmasters: Shri Mahesh Dahal, Shri Satish Chandra Pradhan, and Shri PB Subba, and senior teachers like Smt. Gita Pradhan, Shri DP Pandey, Shri LN Sharma, Shri TR Baniya, Shri CM Chettri, and Shri Arjun Chettri. Each of them imparted valuable wisdom over time, introducing me to different teaching approaches and the fundamental principles of school administration through our enriching conversations on uplifting the institution.

I extend my heartfelt thanks to all the guardians, parents, and families participating in this journey. Your unwavering support and trust in me have been the pillars of strength. To my dear students, you have brought so much joy and meaning to my life. Each of you holds a special place in my heart, and I will undoubtedly miss the cherished moments we shared together. 

I cannot express enough appreciation for the incredible teaching and non-teaching staff who have graced this institution. Working alongside such talented and dedicated individuals has been a true privilege. Each person has taught me valuable lessons and offered unique perspectives, enriching my understanding of life's diverse tapestry. I am sincerely grateful to each one of them.

As I bid farewell, I earnestly hope that the spirit of cooperation and dedication towards the school will continue to thrive. The School Management Committees play a pivotal role, and I trust in their commitment to the growth and success of this institution. Now, as a new chapter begins, I embark on a different path. 

Tomorrow, Mrs. Nirmala Sharma, one of the school's pillars, and I will join our new postings as the Headmaster of Dongeythang Primary School and the Headmistress of the Primary Section at Singtam SSS. We carry with us the memories and lessons from this school, which will forever shape our approach to education and administration. 

To all of you, my dear friends, colleagues, students, parents, and well-wishers, I extend my deepest gratitude for the love, support, and togetherness you have bestowed upon me. I bid farewell to the school I have served for the last ten years with a mixture of emotions, but I am filled with optimism and excitement for the journey that lies ahead. 

May this school continue to thrive and nurture young minds, guiding them towards a bright future? Farewell, my dear school, and thank you for being an integral part of my life's journey.

India’s illegal occupation of independent Sikkim has to be reversed

Extracted from Pakistan Defence India’s “Chief Executive” in Gangtok wrote: “Sikkim’s merger was necessary for Indian national interest. And we worked to that end. Maybe if the Chogyal had been smarter and played his cards better, it wouldn’t have turned out the way it did.” It is also said that the real battle was not between the Chogyal and Kazi Lendup Dorji but between their wives. On one side was Queen Hope Cook, the American wife of the Chogyal and on the other was the Belgian wife of the Kazi, Elisa-Maria Standford. “This was a proxy war between the American and the Belgian,” says former chief minister BB Gurung. But there was a third woman involved: Indira Gandhi in New Delhi. Chogyal Palden met the 24-year-old New Yorker Hope Cook in Darjeeling in 1963 and married her. For Cook, this was a dream come true: to become the queen of an independent kingdom in Shangrila. She started taking the message of Sikkimese independence to the youth, and the allegations started flying thic...

The Gorkhas - Sons of the Soil, Pride of the Nation

 Nanda Kirati Dewan, a journalist from Assam traces the origin of the Gorkhas in India. Many people have misconceptions about the Gorkhas in India - that they are foreigners and have migrated from Nepal. There could not be a greater mistake than this. The Gorkhas are in fact the aborigines of India and they can trace their history back to ancient times. The Gorkha community is the product of Indo-Aryan and Mongoloid assimilation from ages past. As a linguistic group, they can trace their origin back to Indo-Aryan and Tibeto-Burman beginnings. In fact, the Gorkhas consist of both Indo-Aryan and Mongoloid racial groups. In the Mahabharata and Manusmriti names of Khasa are mentioned. They are in fact the Gorkhas. The Gorkhas spoke the language then known as Khaskura Khasas as a community existed in Nepal which it later changed to another ethnic name. The Lichchhavis, one of the aboriginal tribes of India originally lived in the plains of present Nepal. During the early centu...

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 ...
