Addressing the audience Professor Mahendra P. Lama said that the political parties championing the proposal of an alternative arrangement should keep in mind 4 basic points. Indian Government should consider the issue of Gorkhaland as a matter of national security or we should make it a matter of national security. It is an issue of national security so West Bengal government has no role in it.

The second point is that the body to be formed should have a constitutional guarantee. It should not be like DGHC which had no constitutional recognition. The issue of Dooars and Terai should be solved taking into consideration the Census of 1951. As the census clearly indicates the majority population of the Gorkhas in those areas the areas cannot be excluded from the area to be included in the demand of Gorkhas which is the third point. The fourth point is that the area demanded by the Gorkhas should be included in North East Council which will ultimately recognise the status of a state.He further added that everything including the problem of regularisation of adhoc staff of DGHC should be settled before coming into any sort of agreement.
