Wangchuk, 59, had been fasting since June 28 in solidarity with India's youth Cockroach Janta Party (CJP), which is demanding Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan step down over exam paper leaks in May that affected millions of students. Wangchuk's campaign has emerged as a rare public challenge to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government, drawing support across India and amplifying the activist's demands through millions of views and shares on social media.
