Ladakh Leaders Defend Sonam Wangchuk's Participation in Delhi CJP ProtestPreviousNext

Leh Apex Body (LAB) and Kargil Democratic Alliance (KDA) defended climate activist Sonam Wangchuk's participation in the June 6 Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) protest in Delhi, stating he attended in his personal capacity and his involvement in national issues would not affect Ladakh's movement. The leaders noted limited progress in talks with the Centre and are considering seeking broader political support nationwide. Wangchuk's participation aimed to support demands including the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan over alleged exam irregularities.
