Indian court asks authorities to intervene if fasting activist's condition worsens
An Indian court ordered authorities to monitor the health of activist Sonam Wangchuk, who is on a 19-day hunger strike demanding the resignation of Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan over exam paper leaks. The court instructed intervention if his condition worsens, following a petition to prevent further deterioration. The protest is linked to the Cockroach Janta Party's demand for exam reforms and Pradhan's resignation.
