Sonam Wangchuk Continues Hunger Strike From Hospital, CJP Confirms Amid Health Concerns
Activist Sonam Wangchuk has continued his indefinite hunger strike despite being admitted to Delhi's Safdarjung Hospital, according to the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP). The development comes amid growing concerns over his health, with his family and personal doctor raising questions about his medical treatment and hospital reports.
New Delhi: Activist Sonam Wangchuk has not ended his indefinite hunger strike despite being admitted to Delhi's Safdarjung Hospital, the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) confirmed on Saturday.
In an official statement, the party clarified that Wangchuk remains committed to his protest and will continue fasting while receiving medical care.
"Sonam Sir has not broken his hunger strike. He will continue the hunger strike from the hospital. Please pray for him," the CJP said in a brief statement.
Wangchuk was shifted to Safdarjung Hospital after Delhi Police removed him from the protest site at Jantar Mantar, where he had been observing an indefinite hunger strike.
The activist's hospitalization has sparked fresh concerns about his health and treatment. Earlier on Saturday, Wangchuk's wife requested that he be transferred to another hospital, alleging a lack of transparency regarding his medical reports and treatment.
Adding to the concerns, Wangchuk's personal doctor questioned the hospital's assessment of his potassium levels, raising doubts over aspects of the medical evaluation.
The hunger strike has drawn public attention as supporters continue to monitor Wangchuk's health while urging authorities to ensure transparency in his medical care. As of now, there has been no official response from Safdarjung Hospital regarding the concerns raised by his family and personal physician.
