What Did Sonam Wangchuk Achieve After 26 Day Hunger Strike: After 26 days, Sonam Wangchuk ended her hunger strike. Know what was achieved from this movement, which demands were fulfilled and what is left now.
Sonam Wangchuk Hunger Strike Result: After 26 days of hunger strike, social activist Sonam Wangchuk ended her fast. He broke his fast by drinking juice in the presence of Union Health Minister JP Nadda and Union Minister Dr. Jitendra Singh at Medanta Hospital in Gurugram. However, the movement has not ended with this decision. Now the question is, what was achieved by such a long fast and which demands are still unfulfilled.
What was achieved by Sonam Wangchuk’s fast?
The biggest achievement was that the government gave written assurance on some important issues. According to Wangchuk, he did not break the fast merely on verbal assurance, but took the decision only after getting written consent. The government has assured not to take any legal action or FIR against the students and youth involved in the peaceful protest. Apart from this, assurance has also been given to give appropriate compensation to the families of the dead students related to the paper leak case and to discuss the entire matter in the Parliament.
The issue of accountability reached Parliament
It is also believed that a major impact of this movement is that now the issue of NEET paper leak and transparency of the examination system has reached the Parliament. The government has assured to discuss accountability in the education system and examination system. If this debate takes place, it may decide the direction of decisions related to improving the examination system in the future.
Is it still left?
However, some major demands of the movement have still not been fulfilled. The most important demand was for the resignation of Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan. Wangchuk himself said that no assurance was received from the government in this regard. He admitted that the issue is still incomplete, but giving priority to the interest of the students and broader accountability, he decided to end the fast.

Now what will be the next step?
After the fast ends, the entire focus will now be on implementing the government’s promises. Whether action is taken against the students or not, when the compensation process starts and how serious is the debate on this issue in Parliament, these will be the most important questions in the coming days. This will decide whether this movement was just a symbolic victory or the beginning of a real change in the education system.

After all, what is considered the greatest achievement?
This 26-day fast was not just a protest. It made issues like the credibility of the examination system, safety of students and accountability in the education system the subject of national debate. The biggest challenge still remains, how quickly and seriously the government implements its written assurances. Because the fast may have ended, but the demand for accountability is not over yet.
