Sonam Wangchuk Joins NEET Protest at Jantar Mantar

Environmentalist Sonam Wangchuk extended his support to the protest launched by the Cockroach Janata Party at Jantar Mantar, demanding the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan over alleged irregularities in the NEET examination. The protest, which began on June 20, seeks greater accountability and transparency in the country's education system.

On Sunday, Wangchuk joined hundreds of students, activists and farmer leaders, observing a two-minute silence before beginning an indefinite hunger strike. Earlier, he, along with CJP founder Abhijeet Deepke, paid tributes to Mahatma Gandhi at Rajghat. Meanwhile, the organizers alleged that police placed several farmer leaders from Uttar Pradesh, Haryana and Punjab under house arrest to prevent them from joining the protest.
