    (University of North Bengal, 2024) Khasnobish, Sudip

However, interlinked sources suggest that the region was not immune to the storm of the freedom struggle during the colonial era. The freedom movement of Darjeeling Terai has different currents and trends, some may be called ‘mainstream’, and others may be ‘non-mainstream’. So, in Siliguri or Darjeeling Terai freedom movement did not come suddenly and was definitely not one–centric. Diverse paths and many ideologies united with the same goal of ‘freedom’, whether ‘mainstream’ or ‘non-mainstream’.
