Renowned environmentalist Sonam Wangchuk is on a hunger strike, refusing treatment as he protests at Jantar Mantar. His actions have sparked a wave of demonstrations, notably involving the Citizens for Justice and Peace (CJP) and students rallying for accountability from the government. What promises have been broken, and why are the citizens left to fight for their rights in the streets? Wangchuk's removal from the protest site was reportedly influenced by the ongoing Parliament session and CJP's rally plans, raising questions about the government's commitment to social justice and citizen welfare. As reported by The Hindu, the situation remains tense as supporters continue to demand answers from officials about the handling of protests and the rights of ordinary citizens.
