Sonam Wangchuk, a prominent Indian social activist demanding the education minister's resignation over exam paper leaks, entered the 17th day of a hunger strike as his condition worsened, prompting opposition leaders to urge him to call off the fast https://t.co/guxEc1mYx9
#SOS: To every Indian,
Things are looking grimmer by the day.
I don’t know how much longer Sonam sir can hold on. He keeps telling us he can. But those of us sitting beside him are terribly worried.
This is a man who could have chosen a life of comfort and recognition. Instead, the recipient of a Ramon Magsaysay Award, an honour equivalent to the Nobel Prize, is putting his own life at risk for the future of our children, the young, and this country. He sits for those dead students murdered by a broken, corrupt education system. He is sacrificing his body and maybe his life for a greater cause.
It makes me think what does it say about US that a son of India, who brought us such great honour before the world, has to STARVE himself to death simply to be heard by his OWN government?
This is not my idea of India. This is not India!
Somewhere along the way, we stopped feeling. We began to accept silence when there should have been outrage, indifference where there should have been compassion. We have become spectators to suffering. We have convinced ourselves that someone ELSE will speak, someone ELSE will act.
I have no words left.
I am sorry sir.
We are failing you. We are failing you by allowing a nation to reach a point where a man of your integrity and stature must gamble with his own life just to make those in power LISTEN. We are failing you because we normalised arrogance over empathy. We normalised power over compassion. And we normalised indifference over conscience.
July 20 is our last attempt to save you.
If we cannot stand up now, history will not ask what Sonam Wangchuk did for India. It will ask what India did when Sonam Wangchuk needed her.
THIS IS PEAK WHATABOUTERY 🔥
REPORTER: Why should Norway trust India when fundamental rights are being violated?
MEA: We have Gandhi, ancient civilisation, and a Constitution that guarantees fundamental rights.
REPORTER 🎯: Exactly. I know India has fundamental rights. That is why I asked about violations.
MEA: If rights are violated, people can go to court. 😐
REPORTER: That’s the point. Why are people forced to go to court for basic rights?
MEA: It’s my press conference. I will decide.
REPORTER: When will PM take free questions from the press?
MEA: Next question.

Israel just murdered Prime Minister of Yemen and their entire cabinet. If anyone had done this to Israeli Prime Minister and Cabinet, they'd be considered by Western media as the worst terrorists in the world. So, what does that make Israel? They're obviously a terrorist state.
