Sonam Wangchuk’s Hunger Strike Ignites National Protests | Fargo News

from Fargo News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Sonam Wangchuk’s 26-day hunger strike ignited India’s largest youth-led movement in months, transforming from a protest over exam leaks into a nationwide roar against unemployment, education failure, and government neglect. Dubbed “Cockroach” protests, they’ve drawn professionals, families, and activists across the country, defying tear gas and batons with thousands still marching toward Parliament. Though Wangchuk ended his fast after tense talks with ministers, the movement refuses to fade—demanding the Education Minister’s resignation and pledging more nationwide demonstrations, honoring his sacrifice with renewed fury and resolve.
