Skilfully and cunningly yes, if as the Cord declarws Darjeeling was part of Sikkim then Darjeeling regiin should be REUNIFIED WITH THE MAINLAND SIKKIM ESPECIALLY AFTER SIKKIM MERGED WITH INDIA IN 1975.

very good and well made , feeling good to listen the history of darjeeling . i have spent my child hood in siliguri and visited darjeeling few times.
beautifully summarized!! Nowadays people are less bothered about these things but it is really important to know the history of one's place.
People in the current government with power and influence pretend not to know the real history of the region because they might lose their income .
Thank u CORD...for this beautiful documentary....

@3:46 you guys really used fire lord ozai's picture for Chogyal Tsugphud Namgyal 😂😂
It is, of course, only right that the text of the Darjeeling Grant should be in Lepcha and not in Nepalese; for Lepcha was the language spoken by the majority of the people of Sikkim at that time.
Darjeeling was NOT a total GRANT OR GIFT but LEASED for which the British EIC paid annually until 1861.
Darjeeling is part of Sikkim. Gorkhaland is a farce.
Lepcha is a tribe from Nepal
Even if Nepali was not spoken at that time the official language would be Bhutia because Limbus, Lepcha and Bhutias had made an agreement accepting Bhutia rule in Sikkim.
The first Darjeeling grant was written in Lepcha. Later Bhutia and hindustani.
Plz make video of Darjeeling and Kalimpong before DGHC.....
Dargelling is crown of Bengal, its emotion of Bengal.
How can an illegally encroached ,(stollen) land become the property or part of the thief ? In 1947 the British entrusted the Bengalis only to take care of the administrative function of Darjeeling Dooars region which actually belonged to Sikkim.. They did not say Bengal can have it because the land was part of Independent country Sikkim.
Bengal supremacists at work.
Nepali supremacists at work
Can't even spell it correctly. F supremacist.
Rendi Bengali. I'd rather see darjeeling be again back to sikkim than these machar jhol rendis
thing that have almost lost now is the scripts and languages of these communities. I assume, barely few people can read and write these Lepcha , Limbu and Bhutia(except for monks and old generation) script. Most of the younger generation cannot even communicate with their language because of Nepali, Hindi and English
In Sikkim you can do PHD in (Bhutia, Lepcha & Limboo) and yes the majority of these communities know how to speak in their mother tongue.
These languages are taught in government schools leading to Graduation and Masters in government colleges.
It's your fault, instead of preserving your own culture and heritage,you guys went for a fake identity,and identity of someone else. You guys were the true people of this land but you want a foreign identity. It's never too late,go revive it, bring the change.
@@shoumiksidhya804 what fake identity
@@shoumiksidhya804 True, Yakthungs (limboo/Tsong) are original inhabitant of these places including Lepcha. But they always want to take other identity given by foreign people. They must ask for indigenous name land not gorkhaland, which has no historical evidence and meaning. Gorkha or ethnic nepali came very late around 18th and 19th century. But Lepcha and Yakthung were already living in these places. Hope they will do deep research and save Lepcha and Yakthung identities, cultures, traditions, ethnicity, language, script, and their Matriarchal religion.❤🥰😇
@@UnlimitedAccess-t7e The population of Darjeeling was 10 before Campbell. He increased the population to 10,000 in 10 years in 1850. So how are you indigenous to that region? Lepcha are form sikkim. But not Limbu. Limbu have faked enough history with the help of british. They are most clever
Badiya
Is there any city named Dongrabasti in darjeeling
Darjeeling the queen of Hill in India'''',,
Different communities of darjeeling have co existed peacefully for years with bengalis. We both love each other. If the logic is to divide the state Just bcs of plurality of culture then states like Goa karnataka Maharashtra etc could also be divided bcs of very diverse culture btwn ppl of those states.
Gorkhalis and Bengalis never never live together and Darjeeling region cannot be part of Bengal never because these are the property and parts of Sikkim only leased to the British. And the British NEVER gave it to Bengal but only asked them to look after the administrative functions because the land actually belknged to Sikkim and they intended to come back because they had made the region an economic hub.
@@bhaktabdrtamang5805 india was never a country in past. Before british came, there were multiple rulers managing multiple parts of the county as independent states - should then all states start asking to go back to the pre british status and divide the country into independent nations? With all due respect sir, the current situation is that both bengalis and gorkhas live in peace and harmony like brothers. Every years lakhs of bengalis visit darjeeling for tourism, and boost the economy of the place. In return the people of darjeeling shower tourists with love and word class service. Siliguri serves as the main supply chain hub for all hilly areas . Imagine if political differences based on history breaks this current bonhomie? The economy of the region will be adversely impacted for the longest time
@@suvrodip in any case Darjeeling Dooars region can never be part of Bengal because encroached or stollen land of a neighbor can not be claimed by the encroacher/land thief as its own. Sooner or later it must be returned to itsoriginal legitimate mainland.
@@bhaktabdrtamang5805 oh so now doors is also stolen land🤣🤣. Tomorrow u will say entire india is stolen land bcs the original habitants of India were Dravidians and Aryas came from central Asia and Europe 🤣🤣. What stupidity.
Darjeeling and Siliguri are the lands of tribes it was neither Bengali's nor Bengal's. No one is saying that communal harmony between two ethnic groups should be disrupted, we are just saying the land should go to the original owners, the tribes; Gorkha.
Need a video on history of kalimpong.

Darjeeling isn't part of limbu kingdom
@@bramstokes7156 Check arun and TISTA RIVER.
I am from DARJEELING.
@@sumitchettri7905 copy and paste it here. Give us proof
@@bramstokes7156 if darjeeling was not part of limbuwan how darjeeling terai became part of Sikkim . where native r dhimal, bodo .dhimal is just limboo of plains. Who signed lepcha, limboo, bhutia treaty on behalf of darjeeling terai. There was no such limboo kingdom it's limbuwan . Limboos used to call same place limbuwan( where limboos lived), lepchas used to call same place myal lyang. region from mechi to teesta was called chungjung by limboo. But darjeeling was majority of lepcha. Only after sikkim n gorkha kingdom came, sound boundary of administration came.
Original name of darjeeling is dorjeeling. Dorjeeling means land of thunderbolt.. (Tibetan language)

Need history of Sikkim on next video
Darjeeling Nepal me tha phle
The Cord team failed to go back to the early history of Sikkim before the begining of Chogyal dynasty that begins in 1604 . Prior to this year Sikkim was there and was being ruled by Lepcha King called Ponu Hobam . The territory of Sikkim had extended upto the entire terai belt present Siliguri , Darjeeling kalimpong which became a part of Bhutan later on in 1706. How part of Sikkim became part of Bhutan is related with the event of coronation of Chakdor Namgyal the third son Tenshuge Namgyal . He was the second Chogyal of Sikkim who succeeded his father Phuntsong Namgyal.
Yes. That proves the current Dooars Kalimpong region and Siliguri and Darjeeling are all part of Sikkim and since the mainland Sikkim has also become the 22nd State of India Darjeeling Sikkim must be REUNIFIED and on the basis of majority Gorkhali population, It should be given a new name the Bharatiya Gorkhaland or the Indian Gorkhali State as the fullfillment of PPS..
Darjeeling politics is a failure in political resolution. But that's actually not the main concern for people and leaders in the hills. Although most parties championing Gorkha cause have only sucked up Bengal gov ass and try to hide this. First Subhas Ghising failed to bring statehood by accepting DGHC. Second Bimal Gurung failed to bring statehood by accepting GTA. Third new parties have sucked up Bengal gov ass by making alliance.
The same as how the Gorkhas failed in their raid against Sikkim and British.
This land belongs to money. There is no Gorkha. All people and politicians survive and live on money. The idea of Gorkha identity is only a pseudo political social sentiment that most so called true gorkha people and politicians understand it's false and have aligned themselves with money. They go where money and power is. The truth is Gorkhaland is just a resort to begging goverment. It's like you cannot get 100 in real life but you can get 90. 90 being the core reality.
Democracy and majority have proved that Gorkhaland is nothing. It's just a baby crying for money. And that is not me but the leaders and people talking. DGHC. GTA. Now Bengal gov minions.
@@bramstokes7156 the truth no one can hide, erase or forget is that Sikkim is now part of India because of the 97% Nepali majority vote and Darjeeling was leased by the British from Sikkim. These must be REUNIFIED and given a new name Bharatiya Gorkhaland. Bengal cannot claim ex British Administered and developed lands because Bengal is only caretaker NOT THE OWNER. so Bengal must let go of its clutches as soon as the residents want to be separated or that Mainland Sikkim claims back the region.
@@bhaktabdrtamang5805 that very selfish of you to say that, among the three native tribes bhutia lepcha and limboo, only limboo is gorkha. why should bhutia lepcha live under the community name which they are not part of ? even though bhutia lepcha remained the integral part of hill community gorkha people betrayed them by bringing administration under their name which is beginning of great rift and discrimination in hill community
🤔🤔🤔❤️❤️😊
What can be done to protect our culture now?!
True 👍🏾
Avatar fire bender king as King of Sikkim
Also refer to the book "The Story of Darjeeling" by Basant B.Lama.
Vai please, it is NOT STORY but HISTORY.
Only to certain extent the history of Darj presented by The Cord is true…
I agree.
The whole thing is there in letters compiled by Fred Penn in a book called Road to Destiny.(The Darjeeling letters).
Only 100 POPULATION harey.
There was LIMBU,LEPCHA, MANGAR,BHUTIA and other KIRATI tribes whose POPULATION cannot be only 100.
the original text must have been drafted in English, by Lloyd, and translated into the Lepcha language of the Lepcha version, reproduced in facsimile, by a Lepcha translator employed by Lloyd, as a model for the Rajah to follow in making his gift; this document the Rajah then endorsed, with his red seal, and returned it to Lloyd without change. Lloyd then added the Hindustani translation, in the lower half of the facsimile, which was then further translated to English.
A longer letter dated 26 February to the gov gen followed Lloyd this time written in Tibetan(pinn 1986,pg 122)
Always when topic is about sikkim .the lepcha's are always missing .

Being bengali i love Dargelling
Indian so called gurkha's should be ashamed of calling themselves gurkha. Gurkha is the nepali and army of Nepal . Stop calling yourself gurkha and humiliating nepal
Nepal was a part of akhand bharat then eventually Gurkha are indian right
tamang people calling themselves gurkha is shame and disrespect to their history when gorkha army brutally murdered their king and civilian by conspiracy. tamangs were never allowed to rise in social status for the fear that rise of tamang and their kingdom near to kathmandu valley will pose threat to gorkha kingdom. they were only given the role of porters and other man labor. they were are not allowed to be soldiers in gorkha army which was changed in much later period of history. you got your chance to be called gorkhas only when british arrived.

❤️bhai,
Gorkhas migrated to Darjeeling from nepal. They're outsiders
@@mausenpai215100% correct
Wasn’t this a part of Coochbehar Royals property…….half of the houses including Lal Kothi and Elgin
hotels were the summer residences of the Maharaja of Coochbehar
how can The Supreme Court Of India ...Label The Inhabitants of Sikkim as Foreigners ???....??????
Lepcha,bhutia are real resident of Darjeeling.Gorkhas are outsiders.
Yes but many argue that colonial documents were fabricated by officials to depict the region as barren and uninhabited, served to justify their action before the British parliament. Also there are some oral histories depicting how mangar, rais existed in darjeeling and sikkim. Like mangar leader has narrated that their ancestor had a mangar king named shintu pati shen who ruled part of land in Sikkim. Tibetans conspired to kill him to get rid of the mangar king and so the queen in her king's funeral poisoned many Tibetans. This was committed in a place known as Tingsong phug or place with thousand corpses. Tibetans later attacked the forts of mangers and on the verge of defeat the queen committed suicide by throwing herself in the river which later was known as Rani khola in Sikkim. They also stated they have the existence of a place called mangarjong in sukhia pokari block as evidence for their presence in the region since ancient times.
So do your research well.
@@Peniba don't mix mythology and history.
@@অগ্নিমিত্র so u think history didn't come from orally? Do u even do research. I'm a research scholar, I have done my homework well unlike some in dokan ko kam
Then tell india govt without gorkha force india would collapse u fool u sleep well at night because of gorkhas u r from bangladesh u r outsider
Education is very important!!! Go get a class and then strike!! Without knowledge do not be an empty vessel making noise. We all need to stay United for what we want as a state Gorkhaland. If we divide amongst ourselves we will not achieve what we want. Remember speak wisely.
Britishers should return the lands of nepal back
Dorjeling, Siliguri and Kalimpong should be separated. Tri should be created as UT for the development of the region. Under CPI and Pseudo CPI Mamta Banerjee will ruin this region and make a burden on the Indian economy. It has tremendous potential to become a successful region of India if this region becomes UT like Ladakh.
I am a Kannadiga but I will say Siliguri was not a part of Darjeeling because protest aginst bengali language done by Darjeeling not by whole north Bengal when gorkha killing Bengalis all Siliguri Bengalis was safe at that time if you want Darjeeling you can but Siliguri will be indian territories because West Bengal and Darjeeling govt will fight so it will be territory and mind it Rajbongshi and gorkhas are not same

Darjeeling is a Lepchhaland ✅️ Gorkhaland ❌️
Limbu and Bhutia too.
Plz go thru 'Road to Destiny' by Fred Penn for more genuine information.
Facts : Darjeeling was never part of West Bengal
why hasn't it been merged with Sikkim now? why dont you guys demand to be part of Sikkim instead of Gorkhaland which has very low probability of happening?
Yes some also want bodoland
That's how India got all of seven sisters states in India.
