New Delhi: Indian Supreme Court has questioned the Modi government’s transcripts of Ladakh activist Sonam Wangchuk’s videos, highlighting the government’s questionable tactics in detaining him under the National Security Act.<\/p>\n
According to Kashmir Media Service, Wangchuk has been detained since September 2025 for leading protests demanding Ladakh’s statehood and Sixth Schedule status. The court criticized the government’s translations, saying they were imprecise and “reading too much into” Wangchuk’s speeches.<\/p>\n
The government’s justification for Wangchuk’s detention has been met with skepticism, with the court seeking actual transcripts of his statements. The case has sparked concerns over the government’s attempts to suppress dissent in Ladakh and other parts of Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir.<\/p>\n
Wangchuk’s detention is seen as part of the Modi government’s crackdown on voices demanding justice and rights in Ladakh and Kashmir.<\/p>\n
Elaborating the Indian Supreme Court\u2019s observations, legal experts said that the court in fact told the Modi government that they are interpreting Sonam Wangchuk’s words in a way that is not accurate. \u201cThe government is saying he said something that he didn’t, and that’s why they want to see the exact words he used,\u201d said one expert. The court is questioning the Modi government’s reasons for detaining Wangchuk, implying that they might be misusing their power.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
