Climate activist Sonam Wangchuk has accused Safdarjung Hospital of preventing him from leaving for several hours, despite a Delhi High Court order permitting his transfer to Medanta Hospital in Gurugram. A video released by Wangchuk shows him in a heated argument with hospital staff, reportedly telling them to arrest him if they wanted. Hospital authorities responded that the video was recorded before they received the written court order and that they acted according to protocol. Wangchuk had been on hunger strike demanding examination reforms and protections for peaceful protesters. He ended his fast after receiving assurances from the government regarding his demands. The incident highlights ongoing tensions between activists and authorities over procedural delays. Wangchuk's transfer to Medanta was eventually completed following court intervention.
