Climate activist Sonam Wangchuk says he is basically under house arrest after the Ladakh administration put a 60-day movement restriction on his movements and activities.
The order, issued November 11, imposes restrictions on his activities for 60 days.
Wangchuk is questioning whether this is even legal and wants clear information about his right to leave home.
Sonam Wangchuk says denied lawyer access
Wangchuk says masked people forced him back home when he tried to protest, and he was not allowed to talk to a lawyer.
He is frustrated by how vague the order is, especially the part banning "any activity."
He believes these restrictions are linked to upcoming elections and wants to see the letter that triggered them.
For now, he is asking for more openness so he can speak up about election issues and stalled talks with the government.
