PM Urges Sonam Wangchuk to Follow Medical Advice After Fast

Sonam Wangchuk, a well-known activist, ended his 26-day hunger strike after the government promised not to take legal action against peaceful protesters.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi urged him to follow medical advice and regain his health.

Union Ministers JP Nadda and Jitendra Singh were present when Wangchuk broke his fast.

The government also assured discussions on solutions to paper leaks and educational reforms.

Abhijeet Dipke, founder of the Cockroach Janta Party, expressed relief and gratitude for Wangchuk's sacrifice.

The party's protest will continue until the resignation of Dharmendra Pradhan.

PM Modi promised more strict actions in paper leak cases and suggested a discussion in the Cabinet regarding fast-track courts.
