The Sikkim Democratic Front has demanded an independent scrutiny of the outcomes of the SIR hearings held in Soreng District, seeking transparency and accountability.
The Sikkim Democratic Front (SDF) has formally requested an independent review of the outcomes of the SIR hearings conducted in Soreng District.
The SIR hearings, which were held to address local grievances, have come under scrutiny after allegations of procedural irregularities emerged. The SDF argues that an impartial assessment is necessary to ensure that the findings are credible and that the rights of all parties involved are respected.
By calling for an external audit, the SDF aims to reinforce public confidence in the local administrative processes and to prevent any potential misuse of the hearing outcomes.
The demand comes as part of a broader effort by opposition parties in Sikkim to promote transparency in state governance. The SDF has urged state authorities to appoint a neutral panel to examine the hearing records and report their findings within a stipulated timeframe.
The state government has yet to respond to the request, and the next steps in the review process remain to be announced.
