Sonam Wangchuk ends hunger strike as education minister resigns

Activist Sonam Wangchuk ended a 26-day hunger strike after the government assured parliamentary action on exam reforms and no cases against protesters. Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan resigned amid nationwide protests over NEET-UG paper leaks affecting 2 million students and linked to multiple suicides. The Cockroach Janata Party (CJP) continued its agitation, calling Pradhan's resignation non-negotiable and demanding compensation for victims.
