Sonam Wangchuk ended his 26-day hunger strike after receiving assurances from the Centre on key demands linked to the NEET paper leak protests. The political controversy has quickly intensified. Congress MP Imran Masood has accused Wangchuk of striking a "personal deal" with the government and called him "Anna Hazare Part 2." Meanwhile, Mahua Moitra warns Wangchuk not to let the government dilute the movement and questions the reported proposal to send protesters across the country. At the same time, CJP makes it clear that its protest at Jantar Mantar will continue until Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan resigns. 

In an exclusive interview, social activist Anna Hazare discussed why Arvind Kejriwal lost the Delhi elections. He pointed to the controversy surrounding the liquor policy and the 'Sheesh Mahal' issue, which negatively affected Kejriwal’s reputation. Hazare emphasized that these issues hurt the former Delhi Chief Minister and AAP leader, putting him on the defensive. He suggested that such controversies played a major role in the loss, as they distracted from the party’s core message and caused public mistrust. Hazare's comments shed light on key factors behind Kejriwal's defeat in the elections.
