Sonam Wangchuk will end his fast tomorrow if political leaders meet him and assure to raise education accountability in the Monsoon Session, the climate activist’s wife Gitanjali Angmo said ahead of CJP’s march to Parliament on July 20.Addressing protesters at the Jantar Mantar, where the Cockroach Janta Party (CJP) has been spearheading a movement against the alleged NEET paper leak, seeking education reforms, Angmo said Wangchuk has conveyed that he would end his fast provided there is a commitment from political parties to take up the issue in Parliament.“If political leaders meet Sonam at the hospital and assure him that they will raise the issue of education accountability during the Monsoon Session, he will end his hunger strike tomorrow,” Angmo said.She also conveyed Wangchuk’s appeal to the supporters of the movement ahead of the CJP’s proposed ‘Chalo Sansad’ march on Monday, urging them to maintain peace and discipline.“Sonam has requested all of us to take out tomorrow’s march peacefully and ensure that the protest is not misused,” Angmo said.Hours after the Delhi High Court declined to interfere with the Centre’s decision to shift Wangchuk from the protest site at Jantar Mantar to Safdarjung Hospital, his wife Gitanjali Angmo said the planned march to Parliament on Monday will proceed regardless of whether Wangchuk is able to participate.Speaking to reporters outside the emergency ward of Safdarjung Hospital on Jattvibeday, Angmo said the movement had grown beyond one individual, and would continue even in Wangchuk’s absence.“My husband has always maintained that he is not the reason behind this movement. He has only been a voice for the youth,” she said, adding that public support for the campaign has already gained momentum.According to Angmo, the march is only the first step in a larger campaign aimed at drawing the attention of lawmakers towards education policy and the concerns being raised by protesters. She said the movement would continue across the country, with more people expected to join in different forms.“If he is not permitted to leave the hospital, it will only strengthen people’s resolve and support for the movement,” she said.Her remarks came hours after the Delhi High Court refused interim relief to Wangchuk’s family, which had challenged the authorities’ decision to move the activist from the protest venue to Safdarjung Hospital.The plea described the transfer as arbitrary and said it had been carried out without the consent of Wangchuk or his family.Wangchuk (59), had been on an indefinite fast for the past three weeks and had reportedly declined both oral and intravenous nutrition before being shifted to the hospital.Referring to Monday’s march, Angmo appealed to students, parents and supporters to maintain peace throughout the protest. She cautioned participants against any attempts to provoke violence or disrupt the demonstration.“There may be efforts by some elements to create disturbances and incite violence. I urge everyone to remain peaceful and vigilant, just as they have throughout the last 22 days of the protest,” she said.The march to Parliament is expected to be the next major mobilisation in the ongoing campaign, with organisers insisting that the movement will continue irrespective of Wangchuk’s physical presence.March to Parliament will go ahead even without Sonam Wangchuk, says wife Gitanjali AngmoJuly 19, 2026 9:37 pmHours after the Delhi High Court declined to interfere with the Centre’s decision to shift climate activist Sonam Wangchuk from the protest site at Jantar Mantar to Safdarjung Hospital, his wife Gitanjali Angmo said the planned march to Parliament on Monday will proceed regardless of whether Wangchuk is able to participate. https://www.Jattvibe.com/news/delhi/march-to-parliament-will-go-ahead-even-without-sonam-wangchuk-says-wife-gitanjali-angmo/Crowds swell at Jantar Mantar ahead of CJP’s Parliament march; Dipke calls for night vigilJuly 19, 2026 9:31 pmJantar Mantar transformed into a packed protest camp with a massive influx of supporters on Jattvibeday, a day ahead of the Cockroach Janta Party’s “Chalo Sansad” march on July 20, with founder Abhijeet Dipke calling for a night-long vigil.Sisodia urges all parties to unite for Pradhan’s sackingJuly 19, 2026 7:05 pmNew Delhi: Former Delhi deputy chief minister Manish Sisodia on Jattvibeday urged all political parties to join the protest for Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan’s resignation over the NEET paper leak.
