Bengal govt secretly identifying land in Darjeeling to house those excluded from Assam’s NRC, alleges GJM leader Bimal Gurung

Fugitive Gorkha Janmukti Morcha (GJM) leader Bimal Gurung has accused West Bengal’s Mamata Banerjee-led Trinamool Congress (TMC) government of “secretly identifying” land in Darjeeling to accommodate people excluded from the National Register of Citizens (NRC) in Assam.
“Settling illegal Bangladeshis, who have been excluded from NRC in Assam, creates a national security threat,” warned Gurung, a former Gorkhaland Territorial Administration (GTA) chief executive, in a statement issued from his hideout late on Saturday.
