Sonam Wangchuk Begins Hunger Strike at Ladakh Bhavan After Denied Access to Jantar Mantar

Climate activist Sonam Wangchuk began an indefinite hunger strike at Ladakh Bhavan in Delhi after police denied permission to protest at Jantar Mantar. Wangchuk, seeking constitutional safeguards for Ladakh, set out from Leh on foot with supporters on September 1. Despite promises of a meeting with top leaders, no date was set, prompting him to continue his protest at Ladakh Bhavan.
