Sharad Pawar slams Centre over ‘irresponsible’ handling of Wangchuk's hunger strike
Nationalist Congress Party (NCP) president Sharad Pawar criticized the Centre for its 'irresponsible' response to activist Sonam Wangchuk's hunger strike, stating that the government acted only when the situation became 'uncontrollable.' He argued that the administration failed to engage with the legitimate demands of students, instead opting to hospitalize Wangchuk. The protest is expected to continue despite the government's intervention.
