On the 21st day of an indefinite hunger strike, police removed educator-activist Sonam Wangchuk from a sit-in at Delhi’s Jantar Mantar observatory. Demonstrators plan to march towards Parliament on Monday. The CJP's emergence highlights youth anger over unemployment and corruption in India's political system.
