Cockroach Janta Party Defies Ban, Calls for 1.5-Kilometer March to Parliament

Ahead of the Cockroach Janta Party's planned march to Parliament on July 20, 2026, climate and education activist Sonam Wangchuk said he would end his hunger strike if the government or MPs addressed education failures. Despite authorities deploying security personnel with riot guns and denying permission for the march, Cockroach Janta Party called for more supporters to join at Jantar Mantar, planning a 1.5-kilometer procession from there to Parliament starting at 9 a.m.
