Sonam Wangchuk hunger strike LIVE: Wangchuk taken to hospital; Abhijeet Dipke under detention, says Delhi Police

“Let me prove that my brain is still fine,” Sonam Wangchuk had said in a video posted at midnight. 

Mr. Wangchuk said he has lost nearly 20% of his body during his indefinite hunger strike but remained resolute, asserting that if governments could fall over rising onion prices, seeking accountability for students could also bring political change.

“I ask you — do the people of India love their children’s lives and education more, or onions?” he said, before recalling that governments had fallen in the past over public anger triggered by soaring onion prices.
