GANGTOK,: Citizen Action Party (CAP) Sikkim has said people have accepted it as
a formidable opposition party after crossing 54 straight days of public outreach
campaign on Monday.
In
a press statement, CAP Sikkim maintained that youths are increasingly attracted
towards the party which will encourage the people to come forward in support.
The
CAP Sikkim added it has already announced restoration of old pension system for
State government employees, total empowerment of the panchayati raj system and
independence of the law enforcement agency. We will also unconditionally return
those unused lands acquired by the government to their rightful owners, said the
party.
“In
the present situation, the police officers are given orders by the ruling
party’s functionaries and this is unfortunate for a democracy. We will finish
the political rule and establish the rule of law. The State will flourish only
when the panchayat and police are empowered and all kinds of social evils would
automatically end,” said the CAP Sikkim.
Our
future programmes would be expanded during this public outreach campaign and we
will prepare all our programmes based on interaction with the people and
younger generation, said the CAP Sikkim.
