Sonam Wangchuk: 'This is worse than house arrest'

Ladakhi innovator Sonam Wangchuk has claimed that he was placed under house arrest at his institute. This charge was denied by the police which said he was only prevented from observing a five-day-long fast at Khardung La top. The Ladakh-based innovator had announced a five-day long hunger strike at 18,380 feet high Khardung La from January 26. It is to invite attention of the BJP-led Centre to the demands of the people of Ladakh, including extension of the sixth schedule of the Constitution.
