Sikkim, the Dark or a Bright Future Ahead - Affected Citizens of Teesta

Located on the flanks of the Eastern Himalayas, Sikkim was a hereditary monarchy till 1975, when it merged with India to become the 22nd state of the country.
The state shares its borders with Nepal in the West, Bhutan in the Southeast and China in the North. Sikkim is a land of dramatic contours with rugged mountains, deep valleys and dense forests consorting with glaciers, raging rivers and lakes and biodiversity hotspot. The state has the steepest rise to an altitude over the shortest distance and climate ranges from topical to temperate to alpine. The variety in elevation gives Sikkim a rich botanical wealth. The world's highest National Park (Khangchendzonga National Park) is located in this region. There are over 4000 species of plants and luxuriant forests which cover 36 per cent of the land. These dense forests are the habitat for a variety of animals, some of which are today threatened with extinction because of changes in the eco-system.
Sikkim has three main ethnic groups, the Lepchas, Bhutias and the Nepalese. The total population is 5,40,851 persons with 288,484 male and 252,367 females. The Nepali community consists of diverse ethnic groups and forms the largest percentage of the population. The Bhutias including similar communities are around 70,308.
The Lepchas who call themselves the mutanchi Rongkup, are Sikkim's earliest inhabitants and around 40568 in Number (2001 census). The Majority of the lepchas live in "Dzongu" which is considered the Cradle of Lepcha civilization. it is region protected by various traditional and Enacted laws to safeguard the Indigenous Aborigines from exploitation and other hazards. The culture, customs and traditions of the Lepchas are inextricably linked to their deep bond with nature but changing times and modern developments have started disturbing the delicate eco-system with which they have lived so closely over centuries.
Apart from these there are many 'plainsmen' from different parts of the country settled here as well as a small community of Tibetan exiles. Lately the state has witnessed a large infusion of migrant laborers, brought here to work on large Hydroelectric Power
Projects like the Rangit and Teesta HEP Stage V as well as the continued import of people by the Border Roads organization. The total land mass comprises of 7096 sq kms and lies within 27°-28° latitude and 88°-89° longitude. The crowning glory of Sikkim is Mt. Khangchendzonga, the third highest mountain in the world. For the Sikkimese, Khangchendzonga is much more than a mountain and is revered as the abode of their guardian deity Dzo-nga. The Zemu Glacier is the source of Mighty River Teesta, which originates in the tundra like region at 18000 ft and flows down to the Bay of Bengal crisscrossing through different places in Sikkim and West Bengal. The Rangit River originates from the Rathong Glaciers. The water for these rivers is fed by the melting snows and the rain in the Catchments areas
Rivers are an integral part of the Sikkimese ethos. Much of the folklores and traditional ways of life of the locals revolve around the mighty Teesta and the Rangeet Rivers. The River Teesta not only sustains the livelihood of the locals, by preserving and propagating the rich bio-diversity which includes the cultivation of the main cash crop of the State-Large Cardamom, but is also the very backbone of Sikkim's cultural heritage.
