SC Adjourns Hearing on Wangchuk Detention Plea

The Supreme Court has postponed the hearing of a case until January 29, 2026.

This case is about the detention of a climate activist named Sonam Wangchuk.

His wife, Gitanjali J Angmo, has filed a plea saying that his detention is not fair and that the authorities did not follow the correct procedures.

The court wants to hear more from the government and the Ladakh administration before making a decision.

The activist's wife argues that her husband's speech was meant to stop violence, not cause it, and that the authorities are misrepresenting his actions.
