One Year After Ladakh Violence, Calls for Inquiry Report and Accountability ContinuePreviousNext

A year after the September 2025 Ladakh violence that resulted in four deaths during protests, climate activist Sonam Wangchuk has called for the release of the judicial inquiry report, higher compensation for victims' families, and a review of criminal cases against protesters. Educator Gitanjali J. Angmo criticized the timing of the Ladakh Festival, which coincides with the 'Martyrs Month' and Wangchuk's detention anniversary, urging remembrance over celebration. Both highlight ongoing demands for accountability and constitutional safeguards in Ladakh.
