Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee criticised for not participating in Gorkha talks

Congress Legislature Party leader in West Bengal assembly Manas Bhunia today criticised chief minister Buddhadeb Bhattacharjee for not taking part in the fifth tripartite talks with the GJM and wondered whether he really wanted a solution.

"It is unfortunate that the chief minister chose not to participate in the crucial meeting and sent two cabinet ministers instead. Is he really interested in finding a solution to the Gorkhaland problem?" he told reporters here.

Bhunia, however, hoped that a solution to Gorkhaland problem would be found out with the Centre's intervention.
