Rholu Diwas: A Day to Reminisce our Resilience

Rholu Diwas, observed annually on December 21st, hold profound significance for the Sikkim Krantikari Morcha (SKM) party as well as for the people of Sikkim. The day is observed to celebrate the spirit of change and commemorates the relentless struggle, resilience and vision that transformed Sikkim’s political landscape. The day begins with a puja at the holy Rolu Mandir, a tradition since 2009, marking the site as a symbol of courage, unity, determination and hope for the SKM party and its leader, Chief Minister Shri Prem Singh Tamang (Golay).

From Picnic to Parivartan Mission

On December 21, 2009, a simple gathering at Rolu was organized as a picnic for like-minded employees and politically conscious individuals desiring change. At the time, Sikkim was under the rule of former Chief Minister whose government was widely criticized for its oppressive and autocratic governance.
Shri Prem Singh Tamang (Golay), who was invited as a guest, took the moment to transform the occasion into a historic movement by declaring it as “Mission Parivartan” in Sikkim. This declaration resonated deeply with the Sikkimese people, kindling a movement against the former regime and sowed the seeds for the formation of the SKM party. About five years later, the Sikkim Krantikari Morcha party was officially launched on February 4, 2013.

The Kranti and the Clampdown

The previous regime, notorious for intolerance and oppressive measures, launched a brutal clampdown on those who had attended the picnic where Shri P.S. Golay had sounded the bugle of Kranti for Parivartan. Many government employees who attended the event faced termination, harassment, and political victimization. Many were subjected to brutal political vendetta. Many of these government employees stood firm against the brutal regime and resorted to seeking justice in the courts. Their courage and resilience provided more impetus to the fledgling movement for change. Over the next decade, the struggle only intensified and started taking roots among the Sikkimese people. The previous government responded by increasing its repressive measures, which culminated in Shri P.S. Golay’s being falsely framed in a corruption charge and imprisoned for a year. The incarceration, however, only added to the determination of Shri P.S. Golay to unseat the autocratic regime while the conspiracy against him led to the massive surge in his loyal followers.

In spite of these challenges, the Krantikaris led by Shri Golay remained steadfast in their determination to usher in ‘Vyavastha Parivartan’ in Sikkim. After a decade of relentless effort, the SKM party, with the strong support of the Sikkimese people who were tired of the autocracy of the previous regime, were able to form the government in 2019. The seeds sown at Rholu a decade back had finally borne fruits!

A Symbol of Extraordinary Grit

Today, Rholu Diwas serves as a reminder that Shri P.S. Golay, with his quintessential grit and determination, inspired the Sikkimese people to join the Kranti against the previous regime that had grown arrogant and was growing more autocratic with each passing month. It is a celebration of the sacrifices, dedication and dreams of those who believed in change and acted on their belief. It is the celebration of the extraordinary courage of a leader who dared to rebel against the party that had the strongest government with all the 32 seats in its kitty, and which eventually changed Sikkim’s destiny.

No sooner had the SKM party formed the government in Sikkim in 2019, Shri P.S. Golay set about ushering in ‘Vyavastha Pariwartan’ in Sikkim’s administration. Today, the SKM government is rightfully called the most compassionate government Sikkim has had so far. Under the leadership of Shri P.S. Golay, the SKM government has introduced transformative initiatives aimed at realising the vision of a “Sunaulo, Samriddha, and Samartha Sikkim”. Following are some of the flagship initiatives of the SKM government:
1. Vatsalya Yojana: Under this scheme, financial assistance up to ₹3 lakh is provided to childless couples for IVF treatment.
2. One-Year Maternity Leave: A landmark initiative offering a full year of maternity leave to women government employees.
3. Sikkim Shishu Samriddhi Yojana: Under this scheme, fixed deposits of ₹10,800 is opened for every newborn, redeemable upon turning 18.
4. Childcare Allowance: Non-working mothers receive ₹10,000 per month for one year after the birth of their second and third children.
5. Mobile Village Clinics: Under this scheme, it is ensured that medically equipped vehicles reach every corner of Sikkim to provide essential healthcare services.
6. Free Education and Financial Aid: Under these schemes, financial assistance is given to students from marginalized communities to pursue higher education. Patients seeking treatment both within and outside Sikkim are provided financial assistance.
7. Zero Infant Mortality Programs: Healthcare facilities in the state have been upgraded to ensure zero infant mortality.

Parivartan Continues…
It can be safely concluded that the SKM government has lived up to the expectations of the Sikkimese people and those who dared to launch Kranti against the autocratic government on this day sixteen years back. The resounding victory of the SKM party in the general election is a validation of Shri P.S. Golay’s style of leadership which is characterized by compassion and inclusivity.
As Sikkim marches forward toward realising the collective vision of a Sunaulo, Samriddha, and Samartha Sikkim, Rholu Diwas serves to remind us all of the exemplary courage, resilience and sacrifices by a multitude of the Sikkimese people that made this transformation possible. As Heraclitus proclaimed thousands of years ago that nothing is permanent but change, our Parivartan and by extension our Kranti, also continues under the visionary leadership of Shri P.S. Golay.
More than a joyous day of celebration, it is a day that must stir us all to reflect on our principles and ideology and remain true to them. Most of all, it is the day to celebrate our leader Shri P.S. Golay’s extraordinary grit, determination and love for Sikkim which inspired us all to rally behind his call of Pariwartan and filled us with the courage to face Sikkim’s most brutal government led by the former Chief Minister.

Tragic Loss of Soldier Puran Tamang Shortly After Celebrating His Newborn’s Naming Ceremony Leaves Community Heartbroken

Puran Tamang, a resident of Ambiyok Tea Garden, Gorubathan, and a soldier in the 5/1 Gorkha Regiment, tragically passed away in a devastating accident. Last Sunday, while traveling from Dehradun to Meerut, a fire suddenly broke out at the rear of the army vehicle he was in. In a desperate attempt to save himself, he jumped from the moving vehicle, sustaining critical injuries.

He, along with other injured soldiers, was immediately rescued and taken to the hospital. Due to his critical condition, Puran was transferred to Delhi for advanced treatment, but he succumbed to his injuries last night around 10 p.m. His grieving family has reached Delhi, and his body will be brought to Bagdogra tomorrow morning after post-mortem and departmental formalities.

Heartbreakingly, Puran had returned to duty just a week ago after celebrating the naming ceremony of his newborn child with his wife, parents, and loved ones. Known for his humble and soft-spoken nature, Puran’s tragic demise has left his community in deep sorrow and mourning an irreplaceable loss.
