Culture in general refers to patterns of human activity and the symbolic structures that give such activities significance and importance. Cultures are unwritten systems of symbols and meanings that lack fixed boundaries, that are constantly in flux and that interact and compete with one another.
The 'Cultural Revolution' in the Hills offers to show visitors and tourists the ethnicity of the people of the Darjeeling Hills.
Darjeeling is a multi-ethnic, multi-cultural and multi-lingual region. It accommodates within its geographical boundary heterogeneous social groups with diverse history, society, culture and tradition. Under such a dynamic situation, autochthonous group like the Lepchas felt/feel offended by such a move as they have their own traditional history and culture. Similarly, other social groups like the Bhutias, Marwaris, Biharis and Bengalis residing in and around the Darjeeling hills were/are not either happy with such a move.
You can find lots of cultural programs their one of the most popular is "Daura-Suruwal, or Daura Suruwal", is a national costume of Nepal, which is worn by males.[1] It is also worn by the people of neighboring Sikkim and Darjeeling.

The dress has been wore by Nepali men from centuries.

I do agree with you that Darjeeling is a multi-ethnic, multi-cultural and multi-lingual region. Here you can find Unity in Diversity. But some time this kind of cultural differences create some problem here.
