Climate activist Sonam Wangchuk, known for inspiring the character Rancho in 3 Idiots, is continuing his movement for Ladakh's inclusion in the Sixth Schedule of the Indian Constitution. The Sixth Schedule grants autonomous status to tribal areas, with corporations needing local permission for activities affecting the environment. Wangchuk's 21-day fast in March sought autonomy for Ladakh, and he intends to continue the movement until his demands are met.
