Activist Sonam Wangchuk has called his hospitalisation an "illegal detention" in his first message since being removed from his hunger strike at Delhi's Jantar Mantar. Through his wife, he urged supporters to make the planned Parliament march on July 20 a success, describing the campaign as India's "2nd Freedom Movement" against fear and injustice. Wangchuk has been on a hunger strike since June 28, demanding accountability over alleged NEET exam irregularities and education reforms. Safdarjung Hospital said his condition is stable but requires continuous medical supervision due to the effects of prolonged fasting. (PC: India today)
