Climate activist Sonam Wangchuk has warned that he may launch a hunger strike or a march if protesters detained in Delhi are not released by Sunday. He called the situation in India an “undeclared emergency”. The detentions came during protests against Chief Election Commissioner Gyanesh Kumar over alleged election irregularities. Several leaders and activists, including CJP founder Abhijeet Dipke, Yogendra Yadav and Dhruv Rathee, were detained. Wangchuk said he had hoped for unity and peace during the protest. He had earlier led a 26-day hunger strike in July over alleged examination irregularities.
