Activist and education reformer Sonam Wangchuk has been taken into custody following violent protests in Leh, Ladakh, that claimed four lives and left over 90 injured. The demonstrations, demanding full statehood for Ladakh and inclusion under the Sixth Schedule of the Constitution, escalated into clashes with police. Wangchuk, who led the protests alongside the Leh Apex Body and the Kargil Democratic Alliance, had recently ended a 15-day hunger strike citing rising violence. His arrest has drawn attention across political lines, with the activist asserting the protests were apolitical.
