CJP protest in Delhi LIVE: Will end fasting today if government takes accountability for failures in education system, says Sonam Wangchuk
Activist Sonam Wangchuk has announced he will end his hunger strike if the government takes accountability for systemic failures in the Indian education system. Thousands of supporters gathered in Delhi to protest, highlighting concerns over exam paper leaks and administrative negligence.
Why it matters
The protest reflects growing public frustration with educational governance and the integrity of national examination systems in India.
Sonam Wangchuk said that he will end his hunger strike on Monday (July 20, 2026) if the government is ready to take accountability for failures in the education system or the MPs are ready to take up the issue in the parliament.
In a post shared on his X handle, he said his health doesn’t permit him to participate in the Parliament march; the MPs of different parties should meet him at the Safdarjung Hospital to ensure that they will take up the issue of paper leaks in the Parliament.
He added that his freedom of speech and communication are restricted during his “illegal detention” at the Safdarjung Hospital.
