Pawan Chamling라이브 바카라 run as India라이브 바카라 longest-serving chief minister has ended, his dreams of a record sixth term dissipating over the picturesque Himalayan state by the thinnest of margins. Chamling라이브 바카라 Sikkim Democratic Front (SDF), which ruled the state uninterrupted for 25 years, bowed out with 14 seats in the assembly, with the opposition Sikkim Krantikari Morcha (SKM) gaining a majority with 17 seats. The state assembly has 32 seats.
Chamling, 69, had broken the record of former West Bengal chief minister Jyoti Basu라이브 바카라 record of the most days at the helm of a state. A farmer, police constable and a poet, Chamling had fired the people라이브 바카라 imagination since storming to power with what he described as the “khali khute ko sarkar (government of the downtrodden)”.
His loss also means that the BJP-led NDA has finally found a foothold in the state. The SKM, a BJP ally, also won the lone Lok Sabha seat. Though the people of Sikkim joined India by voting overwhelmingly for abolishing monarchy in 1975, no national party has ever made its presence convincingly felt in the mountain state.
