Sonam Wangchuk Demands Parliament March to Address NEET Scandal and Student Suicides

Activist Sonam Wangchuk has called for a peaceful protest march from Delhi's Jantar Mantar to Parliament on July 20, the first day of the monsoon session, amid the ongoing CJP protest over the NEET paper leak scam.

The protest, now in its 19th day, is demanding the resignation of Union education minister Dharmendra Pradhan and accountability for the NEET-UG paper leak scandal linked to student suicides.

Wangchuk, who has been on a hunger strike for 11 days, urged people to 'do a little more' for the movement, emphasizing that messages alone cannot prevent suicides or protect Ladakh's environment.His health has deteriorated, with reports of losing over 7 kg, but he remains determined to continue the strike for at least 10 more days.

Wangchuk highlighted the need for collective action, stating that the Parliament is the key venue for policy changes to save the country and his life.Health updates show his vitals are stable, though he warns of potential health risks beyond 12 days.

The CJP's protest, which began over the NEET scam, has gained momentum, with calls for systemic reforms to address educational corruption and its tragic consequences.
