Key directives have been issued to bolster public safety, tighten border surveillance, ensure disaster readiness, and maintain uninterrupted essential services across the state.

Calling for unity and civic responsibility, the chief minister urged citizens to cooperate with authorities, stay updated through official sources, and refrain from sharing unverified information. “We are not just protecting our land, but fortifying India’s frontiers,” he said.
In a call for communal harmony and national solidarity, the government has invited all residents of Gangtok to gather at Manan Kendra today at 3 p.m. for the ‘sarva dharma evam sarva jatiya sabha’. The event will culminate in the adoption of a joint resolution by Sikkim’s diverse religious and community organizations, affirming collective support to the nation.
At a time of heightened vigilance, CM Tamang’s message is clear: Sikkim is ready, responsible, and resolute — for Sikkim, for India.
