The Ladakh Protest: The 21-day Hunger Strike led by Sonam Wangchuk 
Tumblr media
Ladakh, famously known as “Mars on Earth”, is the perfect destination where the mind slows down and the soul finds its path.
It is the northeastern Union territory of India, known for its highest mountain ranges, mesmerizing landscapes, beautiful deep valleys, crystal clear blue lakes, diverse wildlife, highest motorable mountain roads, Buddhist heritage, and the overall picturesque beauty of the place.
Ladakh: A union territory without legislature
Tumblr media
Ladakh, which was a part of Jammu and Kashmir since 1847, was separated from Indian-administered Kashmir in 2019 and was reconstituted as a Union territory on October 31, 2019.
People of Ladakh have constantly demanded separate territory since the 1930s due to the unfair treatment of Kashmir and the prevailing cultural differences between people of Kashmir and Ladakh.
The formation of Ladakh as a separate Union territory was widely celebrated. Still, people were disappointed because it was made a UT without a legislative assembly and would have a lieutenant governor, while Jammu and Kashmir had a legislature.
What does it mean to have no legislature in Ladakh?
Unlike J&K, Ladakh cannot elect its own representative.
Ladakh will be ruled directly by the central government through a lieutenant governor as an administrator.
The President of India has the power to form rules and regulations for Ladakh, according to Article 240.
Sonam Wangchuk following his Father’s footsteps
Sonam Wangyal was born in 1925 in a small village in the Leh district of Ladakh. He worked his entire life for the rights of the people of Ladakh. He had strong secular beliefs.
He was appointed as the MLC of Jammu and Kashmir from 1957–1967 and as the MLA from 1967–1972, due to his selfless service toward the people of Ladakh.
Wangyal was also an active member in the campaign for ST status for Ladakhis, which was carried out between 1982 and 1984. 
In 1984, on his five-day hunger strike, the former Prime Minister, Indira Gandhi, visited Leh and requested Wangyal to withdraw from the strike with the promise of granting the status of ST to the people of Ladakh.
Tumblr media
Following his father’s strong morals and values and showcasing his devotion to the land and people of Ladakh, Sonam Wangchuk, a nature activist, engineer, innovator, and educationalist, began a “climate fast for 21 days” on March 6, 2024.
Why are they protesting?
The primary goal behind the protest is to raise awareness about the fragile ecosystem of Ladakh endangered by the growing industrial and developmental projects approved in New Delhi without consent, a threat posed as a result of having no legislative assembly in the Union territory of Ladakh.
Tumblr media
The residents of Ladakh have two key demands:
Full-fledged statehood for Ladakh: the residents have demanded to elevate Ladakh’s status as a Union territory to a full-fledged state. This would enable Ladakh to have its own government and the right to form its own rules and regulations in favor of the land and people of the territory.
Integration of Ladakh in the 6th Schedule of the Constitution: The 6th Schedule aims to protect areas with tribal and indigenous populations. By including Ladakh in the 6th schedule, it would allow the state to establish autonomous districts and regional councils.
These elected bodies will have the power to administer and protect the tribal regions of the area. It would give the Ladakhis more control over water management, land use, and cultural preservation.
What is the government’s response to the ongoing protest?
Unlike the response and action taken upon the hunger strike carried out by Wangchuk’s father, the present-day government is MIA. 
The current government seems unbothered by the demands and protests in Ladakh, just the way it is, and the deteriorating situation in Manipur. 
The pioneers of the movement and every other active citizen in and out of Ladakh are furious about the inaction of the government and the PM, who knowingly promised in his 2019 manifesto of Lok Sabha, that Ladakh will be incorporated into the 6th schedule of the constitution. But apparently, they failed to honor their promises.
Tumblr media
Lack of media coverage:
The lack of media coverage is infuriating for the people of Ladakh and the active citizens of India.
Although the independent media and journalists who are physically present in the ongoing protests do cover the news for the country, But it is disappointing to witness the lack of coverage by mainstream media and the big houses.
The scarcity of coverage of this major issue conceals the truth from the nation. The nation wants to know more about the concerns and affairs of the territory. Unless there is some news from the local media houses, the lack of coverage by the recognized media houses keeps the common man from knowing what is really happening there.
The current news on the Ladakh protest:
According to the current news,
Wangchuk survived solely on water and salt during the 21-day hunger strike (inspired by Gandhiji), which lasted from March 6th to March 26th.
In his speech, he talked about the “21-day fast"—that 21 days was the longest fast that Gandhiji kept during the independence movement.
Wangchuk states that the 21-day fast is over, but the protest will still continue. They will only rest when the government agrees to fulfill their demands.
Wangchuk said, “After me, women will begin a 10-day fast tomorrow. This will be followed by youth and Buddhist monks. Then it could be women, or I could come back. This cycle will go on.”
After ending his 21-day fast, Wangchuk stated “We will continue our struggle (in support of our demands). The gathering of 10,000 people at the venue and the participation of over 60,000 others over the past 20 days is a testimony of the people's aspirations.” 
Conclusion:
All things considered, Ladakh, the "Land of High Passes," stands at a crossroads. While the echoes of their protests might fade from national headlines, the Ladakhi people's yearning for a brighter future persists. Whether they find resolution in the sixth schedule status or the full-throated roar of statehood, one thing is certain: Ladakh's story is far from over.

Irom Sharmila, known as 'Iron Lady Of Manipur'
 Irom Sharmila Chanu-
Irom Sharmila Chanu, also known as the "Iron Lady of Manipur," gained international attention for her prolonged hunger strike as a protest against the Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act (AFSPA) in India. Here's a detailed overview of Irom Sharmila's story:
Background:
Irom Sharmila was born on March 14, 1972, in Imphal, Manipur, India. Manipur, a state in northeastern India, has faced decades of insurgency and conflict. The Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act (AFSPA) was imposed in the region to grant special powers to the armed forces to maintain law and order.
Information about Irom Sharmila's family background is not extensively documented. Here is a general overview based on available information:
Personal life-
Irom Sharmila Chanu was born on March 14, 1972, in Imphal, Manipur, India. Her family hails from the state of Manipur, which has a rich cultural and historical background.Her Father is Irom c Nanda and mother is Irom Ongbi Sakhi . Her husband name is Desmond Anthony Bellarnine Coutinho.She has two children Nix Shakhi and Autumn Tara .
The Incident that Sparked the Protest:
On November 2, 2000, a tragic incident occurred in Malom, a town near Imphal, where ten civilians were allegedly killed by the Assam Rifles, a paramilitary force. The incident deeply affected Irom Sharmila, prompting her to take a drastic step in protest against the AFSPA.
The Hunger Strike:
On November 5, 2000, Irom Sharmila began her hunger strike, vowing not to eat or drink until the Indian government repealed the AFSPA. She chose this method of protest to draw attention to the draconian powers granted to the armed forces, including the authority to arrest without a warrant and use deadly force if deemed necessary.
Legal and Medical Interventions:
Sharmila's hunger strike continued for an astounding 16 years, during which she was arrested numerous times by the authorities. However, she was not force-fed, as the authorities respected her right to protest in this non-violent manner. She spent much of her time in judicial custody or under house arrest during this period.
In 2016, Irom Sharmila decided to end her hunger strike, expressing her disappointment that her protest had not achieved the desired results. She also decided to enter mainstream politics with the hope of bringing about change through democratic means.
Political Endeavors:
In August 2016, Irom Sharmila ended her hunger strike and announced her intention to contest elections in Manipur. She formed a political party called the People's Resurgence and Justice Alliance (PRJA) and contested the 2017 Manipur Legislative Assembly elections. However, she did not win a seat.
Life Post-Hunger Strike:
After the electoral defeat, Irom Sharmila continued to be involved in activism, advocating for human rights and justice. While her hunger strike brought attention to the issue of AFSPA, the law remains in place, and the debate about its necessity and impact continues.
Irom Sharmila's story is one of immense courage and resilience, and she remains an inspirational figure in the fight for human rights and justice in conflict-ridden regions.
 Irom Sharmila has not authored a book herself, but there are publications and documentaries that cover her life, activism, and the issues she has been advocating for. It's possible that there may be new developments or publications beyond that date.
1. Books and Articles:
   - "Burning Bright: Irom Sharmila and the Struggle for Peace in Manipur" by Deepti Priya Mehrotra: This book provides an in-depth look at Irom Sharmila's life, her hunger strike, and the socio-political context of Manipur.
2. Documentaries:
   - "Bloody Phanek" (2015): A documentary by Manipuri filmmaker Sonia Nepram that explores the impact of the Armed Forces (Special Powers) Act in Manipur and features Irom Sharmila's struggle.
   - "Where the Elephants Weep" (2016): Directed by Nandita Dutta, this documentary also covers Irom Sharmila's story and the larger issue of conflict in Manipur.
3. Irom Sharmila's Autobiography: 
Irom Sharmila has expressed her desire to write her autobiography to share her experiences and perspectives. However, as of my last update, I am not aware of any autobiography published by her.
It's recommended to check more recent sources or official statements from Irom Sharmila for any updates on her literary works or publications .

BJP woke up earlier..! Exercise on five state elections..!!
Tumblr media
Bharatiya Janata Party woke up earlier this time. Generally, after receiving the notification of election for any state, the election committee of that party meets and takes decisions. But this time it did not happen. Sharpening strategies regardless of notification. The BJP election committee is reviewing the five state assembly elections to be held later this year. It is interesting to review the elections three months earlier than ever before. Doubts are arising whether it is fear of losing…precaution…
Assembly elections will be held in the states of Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Chhattisgarh, Telangana and Mizoram at the end of this year. Rest of Mizoram are key states. Currently BJP is in power only in Madhya Pradesh. In Mizoram it shared power with the Mizo National Front. However, in the background of the developments in Manipur, the relations between the Mizoram National Front and the BJP are at an end. BJP is determined to win all five of these elections. That is why election strategies are being sharpened three months in advance.

Mamata Banerjee alleges that the BJP is attempting to employ tactics similar to those used in Manipur to divide Bengal for their advantage in the upcoming 2024 Lok Sabha elections. During a session in the Assembly, Mamata Banerjee accused the BJP of attempting to sow communal discord in Bengal for electoral gains, similar to the way they had orchestrated conflicts in Manipur. She claimed that the BJP's main agenda was to divide society along caste and religious lines to gain an advantage in the upcoming elections. Referring to the communal riots in Manipur, the Chief Minister urged BJP MPs and MLAs to request the Prime Minister's visit to the troubled state. Mamata highlighted that the BJP's Hindutva agenda had turned Manipur into a battleground and warned that they might use a similar strategy in Bengal. She alleged that the Bengal unit of the BJP had received instructions from the party's central leadership, including the RSS, during a recent meeting in Delhi to pursue a divisive agenda. Reportedly, state BJP leaders had meetings with RSS leaders and other national figures, where they were advised to emphasize crimes against women, Scheduled Castes, and Scheduled Tribes in Bengal to gain sympathy. The Chief Minister claimed that the BJP had pre-planned moves to create situations that portrayed the state government in a negative light. She also accused them of targeting various communities like the Rajbanshis, tribal population, Gorkhas, and Matuas to create ethnic divisions. Furthermore, Mamata alleged that the BJP would attempt to exploit divisions within the Muslim community for political gains and would fund any party that could split Trinamul's votes. She even suggested that the BJP might support parties primarily supported by minorities. In response to Mamata's allegations, BJP leader Suvendu Adhikari refuted the politics of division and stated that the party believed in uniting people. He questioned how Mamata could know the details of the meeting with RSS leaders, implying that she wasn't present there.
