Verified timeline
Dated, sourced facts only. Where accounts differ, we state the timeline — not a settled characterization.
As of July 18, 2026, organizers report the strike had reached day 21 before Wangchuk was removed from Jantar Mantar.
- Contested accounts
Delhi Police describe the removal as compliance with a Delhi High Court order for medical evacuation; organizers and some press describe it differently. This site states the timeline, not a settled characterization.
The underlying grievance is the NEET paper leak and the government's handling of student accountability demands.
- Up next
A Parliament march is scheduled for July 20, 2026.
- Win for democracy
Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan resigned on 25 July 2026 — a win for democracy, and for every verified signature that kept this demand public.
Victory
The demand was heard.
On 25 July 2026, Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan resigned. Every verified signature on this petition helped keep that accountability public — and democracy answered.
Thank you to everyone who signed, shared, and marched.
