Sonam Wangchuk's fast enters Day 25, activist wants protection of NEET protesters

Sonam Wangchuk’s fast entered Day 25 at Medanta Medicity in Gurugram, where doctors monitored his health in the ICU on Wednesday. From the hospital, Wangchuk wrote to JP Nadda and Jitendra Singh, demanding compensation for NEET suicide victims, parliamentary accountability, and the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi stated Pradhan’s resignation remains a non-negotiable demand, while the Samajwadi Party seeks a parliamentary debate. The government and CJP representatives are exploring talks at a neutral venue after the protest group refused a meeting at Nadda’s residence. CJP spokesperson Saurav Das reiterated demands for Pradhan’s resignation, Rs 1 crore compensation for families, and the withdrawal of FIRs against protesters.

Wangchuk affirmed his fast will continue without these assurances. The broadcast examines the July 20 march clashes, detailing police action, injuries to personnel, damage to vehicles, and demands for scrutiny of cases involving protesters and police.
