Gitanjali J Angmo, wife of climate activist Sonam Wangchuk, has filed a petition in the Supreme Court seeking her husband’s release following his arrest under the National Security Act (NSA).
Angmo strongly denied allegations linking Wangchuk to a Pakistani intelligence operative and accused the Ladakh police of pursuing a politically motivated agenda. “Whatever the DGP is saying, he has an agenda. They are determined not to implement the 6th Schedule and are looking to make someone a scapegoat,” she stated.
'Witch-hunt'
On Wednesday, Angmo also wrote to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, President Droupadi Murmu, home minister Amit Shah, Lieutenant Governor of Ladakh Kavinder Gupta, law minister Arjun Ram Meghwal, and also the Leh district collector, a copy of which she posted on X.
