Sikkim CM Gifts Scooty To A Student Facing Transportation Challenges

GYALSHING: Sikkim Chief Minister Prem Singh Tamang handed over a scooty to a college student from Gyalshing district in a move aimed at helping her continue her education without daily difficulties. The Chief Minister described it as a heartfelt moment to personally hand over the scooty.

Sristi, the daughter of Om Prakash Darjee—a hardworking tailor from Upper Baluthang in Gyalshing—is currently pursuing her first year of Nepali honors degree at Sanchaman Limboo Government Degree College. During a recent interaction, the chief minister learned about the challenges she faced in her daily life.

According to CM Tamang, Sristi explained how the long distance between her home and college had become a serious issue. The daily commute was taking up too much time and energy, which was beginning to affect her studies. Despite these hardships, she remained committed to her education.

Moved by her story, the chief minister decided to ensure that she received a scooty from the government. He noted that this would ease her commute and allow her to attend classes more comfortably. “No child should ever have to struggle to access education due to a lack of resources,” CM Tamang said.

He further added, “We remain committed to empowering our youth and removing every obstacle in their path to learning. Every student deserves a chance to succeed, no matter where they come from or what challenges they face.”
