Demand For Parliamentary Assurance

Wangchuk had earlier said he would end his hunger strike only if Members of Parliament and political parties assured him that the issue of accountability in the education sector would be taken up in Parliament.

However, after a police crackdown on protesters during the Cockroach Janta Party’s Sansad Chalo march, he announced that he would continue his fast until such an assurance was received.

The climate activist joined the CJP-led protest at Jantar Mantar on June 28 and began an indefinite hunger strike in support of students demanding accountability over alleged examination irregularities, reforms in the education system and the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan.

Wangchuk was shifted by Delhi Police to Safdarjung Hospital on July 18 before being moved to Medanta Hospital following an order of the Delhi High Court.
