THE UN-TRIBALS OF ‪DARJEELING‬: Celebrated Tribalism and Left Behind This Mess

Ms. Emma Rai posted these pics with a note yesterday, “So disappointed to see this today at ‪#‎Chowrasta‬ in the exact same spot where just 10 days ago Amar Singh Rai, Chairman of Darjeeling Municipality and MLA, along with Darjeeling Prerna representatives of the DM, and local schools launched the ‪#‎plasticfreedomchallenge‬.
