national climate activist Sonam Wangchuk concluded fast in New Delhi on Friday ahead of authorities sending him to a clinic for a check‑up. Officials affirmed the relocation, reporting they acted following worries over his health. Multiple international outlets documented the involuntary relocation, including Reuters and the BBC, which observed his fast was tied to broader anti‑government protests. Subsequently reported the same compulsory relocation after his prolonged hunger strike. Rights advocates criticised the government for jeopardising a protester. The event has shone a light on how opposition is treated in the country.
