It was mentioned in the meeting that the above project was objected before floating tender by Sonam Tshering Bhutia, President, Save Kabi Lungtsok Committee, which is reflected in the local daily SIKKIM NOW page 2 dated 14th May 2013.

Tseten Tashi Bhutia apprised the members present about the historic 13th Century Oath and Blood Brotherhood Ceremony of Kabi-Lungtsok, laws of the land including Act of Parliament on Places of Worships followed by Sikkim Govt. Notifications etc.

Further, the meeting also resolved to conduct a daylong prayer meet by Revered Bong-things and Venerable Monks at Kabi-Lungtsok on 24th June, 2013 from 9 A.M. onwards under the banner of Save Kabi-Lingtsok Committee and Ong Shezum (North) for which a committee was setup headed by Chewang Rinzing Lepcha and Tashi Rapden  Bhutia.
