Sonam Wangchuk expressed concerns about the detrimental impact of industrialisation on Ladakh, particularly on the environment, culture, and demography of the region.
Recently, Sonam Wangchuk finished a 21-day climate fast, where he only had salt and water. He did this to support Ladakh becoming a state and being included in the Sixth Schedule. Now, the youth of the Union Territory is continuing the fast.
