Activist Sonam Wangchuk has said he would end his hunger strike if the government assured him that no legal action would be taken against the young protesters demanding accountability over the NEET paper leak. In absence of such an assurance, he stressed he would be forced to continue his fast indefinitely.
"I respectfully request an unequivocal assurance from the government that none of the young protesters will face any punitive or retaliatory legal action for participating in the movement," he said in a letter to Union ministers JP Nadda and Jitendra Singh.
