Ladakh Unrest: Tensions Escalate as Groups Halt Talks
People in Ladakh are protesting and there was a police firing which resulted in deaths.
The wife of Sonam Wangchuk is asking who gave the order to fire.
Also the KDA and Apex Body Leh have stopped talks with the government until certain conditions are met.
They are unhappy with how Ladakh is being governed.
They want the government to listen to their concerns and resolve the issues.
The police action is viewed by some as excessive.
KDA will not engage with the Central Government until allegations against Sonam Wangchuk are withdrawn.
Apex Body Leh has withdrawn from negotiations until peace is restored in the region.
Sonam Wangchuk's wife questions the role of security forces and the orders to fire.
The protests were fueled by demands for statehood and inclusion under the Sixth Schedule.
The Ministry of Home Affairs stated they are always open to dialogue.
