Sonam Wangchuk Lists Down Three Conditions Under Which He Will End His Fast
Activist Sonam Wangchuk has announced he will conclude his hunger strike for the rights of Ladakh after more than 20 days. The climate campaigner has outlined three specific conditions that must be met by authorities before he permanently ends his agitation.
Activist Sonam Wangchuk, who has been on a hunger strike for more than 20 days to demand constitutional safeguards for Ladakh, has expressed a willingness to end his fast today. The educator and environmentalist has been advocating for the implementation of the Sixth Schedule and statehood for the Union Territory.
The campaigner stated that his decision to end the protest is contingent upon the fulfillment of three specific conditions. These requirements involve a renewed commitment from the central government to address the ecological and political concerns voiced by the local population during the ongoing demonstrations.
Wangchuk has been sustaining himself only on salt and water during the protest period, which has garnered significant public attention and support across the region. Supporters await a formal response from high-ranking officials regarding the proposed terms for the cessation of the strike.
