The Gorkha Janmukti Morcha (GJM) on Tuesday morning burnt copies of the tripartite Gorkhaland Territorial Administration (GTA) accord at several places in Darjeeling hills and called for boycott of upcoming elections to the semi-autonomous body, scaling up its statehood agitation. Police were on high alert to prevent the situation from spinning out of control. It was the 13th day of the indefinite bandh called by the GJM in the hills to push for a separate state.
