New Delhi: Educator and climate activist Sonam Wangchuk being assisted by supporters during a protest organised by Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) demanding Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation over alleged irregularities in the NEET examination, at the Jantar Mantar, in New Delhi, late Friday, July 17, 2026. Wangchuk on Friday said he has lost nearly 20 per cent of his body during his indefinite hunger strike on the 20th day but remained resolute, asserting that if governments could fall over rising onion prices, seeking accountability for students could also bring political change.
