The process of forming Rotary Club of Gangtok was conceived in March 1968 with the visit of then District Governor of R. Mahapatra of Patna High Court and Rtn.

the following office bearers :

President : Rtn. Haldipur
Vice President : Rai Bahadur Athing Sonam Tobden
Hony Secretary : Rtn. Rasaily
Jt. Secretary : Rtn. Hartnett

The club was admitted to Rotary International as ROTARY CLUB OF GANGTOK on 22nd August 1968 and the charter presentation ceremony was planned on 3rd November 1968 but due to devasting landslides and disruption of communication, the ceremony was postponed and was finally held on 2nd March 1969 with Rai Bahadur Athing Sonam Tobden as President, Rtn. M. Rasaily as Vice President and Rtn. Hartnett as Hony Secretary with Chogyal of Sikkim as Patron and had 32 members on its roll. In a very short time the club saw its bad times and the membership strength reduced to 8 members in 1971. A fresh life was infused in the Club by the initiative of Chogyal of Sikkim in 1976 and the strength rose to 13 and since then the Club has been steadily maintaining and growing to the present strength of over 37 members. Though small in members as far as strength is concerned, the achievement of the Club are no way smaller, the biggest being SURVIVAL against all odd due to the dedication of some members. The strongest bond of survival has been the fellowship during the meetings and more importantly after the meetings especially unto mid eighties.

Earlier today, I met the organisers of Udaan – The Flight of Creativity, an inter-school scholastic competition, at my official residence.

Scheduled for the end of next month at SMIT, Majhitar, this vibrant event is being jointly organised by the Rotary Club of Gangtok and the Inner Wheel Club of Gangtok. Udaan seeks to provide a common platform for students from all corners of Sikkim, be it government or private schools, from urban or rural areas, to come together and showcase their talents.

This is a commendable initiative that encourages creativity, confidence, and collaboration among our youth.

My best wishes once again to the organisers and all participating students for a successful and inspiring event.

Rotary Club of Gangtok Inaugurates Bio-toilets at ATTC Bardang under District Grant No. DG 2459779

Gangtok, 14th August 2024 – In a commendable initiative aimed at bolstering sanitation and advancing environmental sustainability, the Rotary Club of Gangtok proudly announces the inauguration of a new set of bio-toilets at the ATTC Bardang Campus. This essential project, funded by Rotary International District 3240 Grant No. DG 2459779, is a critical response to the devastating floods that swept through the region last year, resulting in the loss of previously installed bio-toilets.

The inaugural ceremony was attended by esteemed guests including Sri Sonam Palden Barfungpa, Principal of ATTC Bardang, alongside members of the Rotary Club of Gangtok, faculty, and students. The occasion highlighted not only the advanced sanitation technology but also the unwavering commitment of Rotary to enhancing community welfare and environmental stewardship.

In the aftermath of the severe flooding on the River Teesta last year, the ATTC Bardang Campus experienced significant damage, including the complete washout of their toilets. The bio-toilets installed by Rotary Clun of Gangtok are designed to offer an eco-friendly solution to sanitation needs and to increase the campus’s hygiene infrastructure.
