Indian Activist on Hunger Strike Is Forcibly Removed by Police
Sonam Wangchuk, an Indian activist who began a hunger strike last month over educational mismanagement affecting millions, has been forcibly removed by police.

Indian activist Sonam Wangchuk was forcibly removed by police from his ongoing hunger strike, according to reports. The activist started the hunger strike last month as part of a protest against educational mismanagement that has impacted millions of students across the country. Wangchuk's protest aimed to highlight systemic failures in the education sector, which have left countless young people without adequate schooling. The hunger strike had been continuing for weeks before police intervened. Witnesses reported that officers physically carried him away from the protest site. No official statement has been released by authorities explaining the reasons for the forcible removal. The incident is expected to spark renewed debate over education reform and the rights of peaceful protesters in India.
