Today as we celebrate the strength and resilience of women, we also recognise that access to resources is a step towards justice, dignity and equality.

Wont be surprised next if they arrest us on NSA.
There are so many ministers with actual crimes yet they go overseas, rapist/murderer gets parole while peope who are actually working for their land environment protection are being tagged as anti national

2nd Oct Arunachal: solidarity to the people of Ladakh and Sonam Wangchuk. We should support as a fellow Indigenous. The land, forest and rivers are ours so decision making power should be us not those, who sits thousands of KM away deciding on behalf of some Adanis and Ambanis

The cycle of disasters that the Himalaya are reeling under has reached its peak in 2025 & its impacts have been felt right down to the plains. The People for Himalaya is with the people of Ladakh as they strive to defend their env from irreversible harm. #ReleaseSonamWangchuk

Story that caught the eye: Today government ministers will pay ritualistic obeisance to Mahatma Gandhi on his birth anniversary. And yet, Sonam Wangchuk is in a Jodhpur jail because he was on a Gandhian fast to press his demands . Even his wife can’t meet him. As Gandhi once said: my life is my message. Embrace Gandhian values, not the man! 🙏

Statehood demand isn’t about “boosting MP seats”.
It’s about survival:
– Melting glaciers
– Loss of tribal land rights
– Rising unemployment
Without statehood & 6th Schedule, Ladakhis remain voiceless.

Ladakhi students and youth are asking: Will our voices only matter in tourism ads, not in democracy? #JusticeForLadakh #ReleaseSonamWangchuck

We are not asking for favours. We are demanding constitutional safeguards to protect
Ladakh’s fragile ecology & indigenous rights.

This is a test for India’s democracy. Will voices for the environment be crushed, or will the
Constitution protect Ladakh?

Honoring Our Brave Sons of LADAKH.
On 24th September 2025, four courageous sons were martyred during the protest in Leh.
We bow our heads in deep respect and gratitude for their bravery and selflessness.
Their martyrdom will never be forgotten & we remain forever indebted to them.

Our heartfelt prayers are with their families & we stand in full solidarity with them during this time of grief.

Rest in peace, dear brothers.
OM MA NI PADMA HU 🙏
