Sanjay Singh Alleges Political Motive in Sonam Wangchuk Arrest

A standoff between the opposition and the central government has intensified following the detention of climate activist Sonam Wangchuk. Rajya Sabha MP Sanjay Singh claims the administration replaced the Delhi Police Commissioner specifically to expedite the arrest and suppress a planned protest march to Parliament scheduled for July 20.

Wangchuk, currently on a 21-day hunger strike to protest systemic examination irregularities impacting millions of students, has seen his health decline significantly. He was moved to Safdarjung Hospital for medical observation, yet the government has remained silent, refusing to engage with his demands or his representatives. This lack of dialogue has fueled growing unrest among opposition ranks.

Leaders from the Samajwadi Party and the Trinamool Congress have condemned the detention, framing the arrest as a calculated effort to silence dissent. As activists and lawmakers mobilize in support of the hunger striker, the controversy highlights a sharp escalation in the government's approach to handling public protests and political opposition.
