Statehood is about our identity, about our right to self-determination. Just as Mamata Banerjee says she is from Bengal, we too want to say we are from Gorkhaland. Its is unconstitutional for Mamata Banerjee to say Bengal cannot be divided. Article 3(a) in The Constitution Of India 1949 clearly says that a new State can be formed by separation of territory from any State or by uniting two or more States or parts of States or by uniting any territory to a part of any State. Mamata Banerjee' statement of Bengal cannot be undivided is unconstitutional as the Constitution of India clearly provides a provision of creating a new state under Section 3(A). No person is above the law or the Indian Constitution. Gorkhaland is a justified and a constitutional demand.
