The Sikkim Democratic Front has formally demanded the resignation of the state's chief minister, alleging a loss of about Rs 27 crore in revenue.
The Sikkim Democratic Front (SDF) submitted a formal demand for the resignation of Chief Minister Prem Singh Tamang, citing an alleged loss of Rs 27 crore in state revenue. The party said the shortfall reflects mismanagement and calls for immediate accountability. SDF leaders highlighted the figure during a press conference in Gangtok, urging the administration to explain the discrepancy. No detailed audit has been released yet, and the state government has not responded publicly to the demand. The demand adds political pressure ahead of upcoming local elections, with opposition parties monitoring the situation closely.
