Rai asked the SKM party to tell the people of Sikkim about its chief ministerial candidate as PS Golay cannot be become even a nominated chairman.
He stressed that youths and government employees need to be very serious in this matter.

He stated the BJP has “betrayed” the Gorkha community and always suppresses the minorities in the country.
Dahal mentioned that the BJP has once again included the universal civil code in its manifesto and shows its real face against secularism.
